Roei en Zeilvereniging "De Amstel"

by Jarig Bakker, 14 August 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 elaborate: a flag blue over white with in the center the club's emblem: a white anchor on two rowing oars in saltire.

The club dates from 1874. An image of the more elaborate flag is archived here, found at https://www.amstelroei.nl/nieuws/verslag-amstelfeestdag, second picture.
