Description: Flag etiquette, as a whole, is a mixture of law and good manners which have risen out of tradition. The second point is important as bad manners can offend and upset others. It is good, therefore, to make the effort to understand and observe the traditions and customs of motor or sail cruising. This book aims to clarify the main points of flag etiquette and other visual signalling methods. Flag etiquette is not difficult, the basic rules are simple and the satisfaction gained from doing it right should not be underestimated.
