Description of the flag

Cruising Club of America (U.S.)
Estb: 1922.

"The flag shall be triangular in the usual proportions with white field and a waved blue stripe 20% of the hoisting width running through the centre from hoist to point.”
Source: Constitution, [Article] XV Flag. Cruising Club of America
1925 [Yearbook]. 19 November 1924.

"The Cruising Club of America has no clubhouse or shoreside base, and no paid staff. Rather, the Club is structured around national committees that conduct mission-related work and manage the administrative operations of the organization, and around geographical Stations that provide regional focus for the membership."

"There are eleven Stations within the Club, each of which has its own Rear Commodore and officers, and which organize annual activities."
