Jason, Arnhem

image by Jarig Bakker, 12 December 2004

Roei- en Zeilvereniging Jason, Arnhem, Gelderland province, after image on this website: a burgee blue over white, with in the center a yellow disk fimbriated red, charged with an ancient trireme with one sail, all red.
Club founded in 1927.

"Jason", Arnhem: officially the yellow disk has no red fimbriation.
Jeroen van Leeuwen, 23 March 2005

Jason was mythological hero who had to fetch the Golden Fleece from Colchis (at the Eastcoast of the Black Sea). That he did with his ship the "Argo". These elements return in the flag above; the colors blue/white are from the Arnhem flag/arms and often standardcolors for a watersportclub (water and air).

Jouster Watersports

image located by Jarig Bakker, 18 May 2023

The Koninklijk Watersportverbond doesn't list them as related to Joure, and so they go a bit under the radar. Having found this flag, it lead me to http://www.jwsjoure.nl. Joure is a market town and the watersportvereniging (I translated it as "Watersports Club") has its harbours and address outside the town, thus they are not shown as a Jouster club.

According to their history, they date from 1932, but in 1937 they got royal approval, and as such they became the "Jouster Watersport" - "JWS", with a new flag.

In their history, at http://www.jwsjoure.nl/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Geschiedenis-80-jaar-JWS.pdf, on page 14, is a fair image of both flags. (Or rather, the old pennant and the current flag. The current flag may also have a pennant version, and our old pennant seems to look somewhat differently.)
