The Yacht Club de France members' private signals

Whitney Smith [smi76c] defined the private signals as 'the flags of individuals who own yachts or other vessels. [The private signals] are properly displayed at the mainmast or main truck".

The 1930 directory of the Yacht-Club de France shows 608 private signals belonging to the members of the YCF.

In Ar Banniel [arb] #12 (Summer 2000), Alain Raullet described the19 black and white private signals shown in the YCF directory. This page shows some of those private signals. The images have been done after the plate published in Ar Banniel.
