Aegir, Hillegersberg

[Aegir, Hillegersberg] by Jarig Bakker, 14 Aug 2004

The Yearbook of the "Rotterdamsch Nieuwsblad" - Wie, Wat, Waar 1941 has two pages with burgees.
Watersport Vereniging "Aegir", Hillegersberg (Rotterdam) - a red burgee with at the hoist a white saltire.
It has its own homepage. Now named Watersport Vereniging Aegir, Rotterdam, founded 16 Jun 1926 - it still uses the same burgee.
There are several clubs named Aegir, the most notable being in Groningen.

Amstel, Amsterdam

[De Amstel burgee] by Jarig Bakker, 14 Aug 2004

The Yearbook of the "Rotterdamsch Nieuwsblad" - Wie, Wat, Waar 1941 has two pages with burgees.
Roei en Zeilvereniging "De Amstel", Amsterdam (Row- and Sailing club). A burgee bright-blue over white with in the center a dark blue diamond charged with a white anchor with in the center two white clubs. The Club does still exist according to
its website - the club building is for hire as a party-center (but on warm summer evenings one has to go inside by 22.00 p.m. as the neighbours will complain!). On that site is a flag, essentially the same but a bit more elaborated: a flag blue over white with in the center the club's emblem: a white anchor on two rowing oars in saltire..

Wageningsche Studenten Roei Vereniging "Argo", Wageningen (Gelderland). Flag: horizontal green - white - green, with at top hoist an ancient sail/rowing ship above something (perhaps the golden fleece, perhaps the name???), all white.
At its homepage is a nearly identical flag, with even unclearer device.
