Re: Pure terror!!!
Arrrr!<br />The 'water cops' around here (one I know personally) take the flag for what it means and it means I want to fly a Jolly Roger. I don't want to fly the traditional country / provincial banner like most other people. The 'pirate flag' is common here... I'd say 1 in 25 boats flies one. Yes, older folks too. I also fly a 'mug of beer' flag. How about that? Really though, the Jolly Roger doesn't mean I'm a pirate and the beer flag doesn't mean I'm pissed. Relax. Be a grown up like us folks that fly a Jolly Roger.

<br /><br />I did state in another post though that I would pull it down if I were to venture off to international waters. Better safe than sorry I guess but where I do 99.99% of my boating it's ok.<br />Happy Yachting.
