For the years that I have been attending the Nationals I have noticed that major fleet boats sport Battle Flags. Seeings how this will be our second year at Edgewater YC and participation in Cleveland Race week, I would like to sport a Catalina Association Battle flag for our Fleet of boats that show up. The problem is I am not very artisitic, but I can sew like no ones business. I am opening up a request to the Association members to come up with a Battle Flag design befitting our cause. It needs to be simple with out minute detail but bold enough for all to reconize our fleet. I am looking for a design that will be flown on a 3foot by 6 foot long flag to be flown from the forestay (6' top to bottom). So members please submitt your designs to this forum topic and I will make the winner for the nationals. Hopefully, this Battle Flag will be passed on to the next Committe Chairman for the Nationals to be used at every event.
