Ever wondered why some sailors bring in their ensigns at sunset? There's more to it that just tradition. And what about courtesy ensigns, house flags and the rest? Do we just string them up and leave them till they rot, or is there a more seamanlike way? It's all here in this short video, spiced up with a yarn or two as usual.

If you’re interested in sailing, things maritime and the salty road to freedom, you'll enjoy my channel, so pour yourself a glass of the finest and settle down with my personal mixture of yarns and useful instructional material.

When I’m away cruising, I never know when I'll get the opportunity to upload. If you can't wait, why not become a member of my website club? You'll find lots of members-only videos and articles, not available elsewhere, and have a chance to join in a regular online forum.
