The Flags We Fly

We are often asked about the flags we fly aboard Therapy. 

On our starboard halyard, we hoist the Stars and Stripes of the United States of America and the state flag of Maryland to honor the men and women who fought and continue to strive for our freedoms and to preserve our democracy. They gave us a home and created safety and opportunity for us to develop the next four flags: either the signal flags for Island Chill Yacht Charters: 'I-C-Y-C' or the signal flags for Chesapeake Bay Yacht Charters: 'C-B-Y-C' . Out of respect for our heritages, we unfurl the flag of the British Navy (White Ensign), the British Merchant Marine (Red Ensign), the flag of the Jamaican Coast Guard and Navy. We also fly the County flag of Lancashire - the home of the East Lancashire Regiment who earned five Victoria Cross medals in service. We often add Lawrence-Perry's, 'Dont Give Up the Ship', the flag of the United States Coast Guard, the United States Navy, the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis and the Blue Angels. 

On our port halyard, we also fly the Stars and Stripes of the United States of America and the state flag of Maryland. Below, we proudly raise the flag of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution of Great Britain in honor of the men and women who volunteer to rescue those at sea in need of rescue. We also fly the National Flags of Jamaica, Great Britain and Canada, as well as the flags of the United States Virgin Islands, Virginia, Illinois, New York and the nations of Barbados, Mexico and Peru in respect to the origins of our past and present captains and crew.

On our stern, we fly the Stars and Stripes of the United States of America, sometimes with our Island Chill Yacht Charters flag below. On the jackstaff, we fly either the Stars and Stripes of the United States of America or our Island Chill Yacht Charters flag.
