"Our 1987 America’s Cup inspired burgee is specially designed for 12 Metre and made with 400 Denier nylon, silk-screened, with a special swallowtail. The burgee is 9 by 13 [by 10 to crutch] inches and is printed read right, double-sided."

"Founded by owner and America's Cup enthusiast, Colin Percy, 12 Metre Challenge operates in Sint Maarten, Netherlands Antilles, and Cozumel, Mexico. It provides both experienced and novice guests with a unique and thrilling opportunity to race some of the most magnificent and famous race yachts in the world. Designed for speed and maneuverability, 12 Metre Class yacht designs ushered in a new era of America's Cup racing when the format was introduced in 1958. The fleet operated by 12 Metre Challenge is an unprecedented collection of [five] 1987 vintage boats that represent the pinnacle of the marquee."

Battle Flag(?) Rectangle circa 1:2. White and blue field equally divided horizontally. White field to hoist superimposed by the logo of Sail Canada, but with a red jib and minus the hull. Blue field to fly superimposed by a hoist-facing white rampant polar bear holding a hockey stick in both front paws.

"True North 1 was built by Crockett-McConnel in 1985 and she sailed in the 12 Metre World Championships in 1986, the year before the America's Cup contest.
True North 1 was designed by Steve Killing, one of the principal designers at C&C Yachts from 1972 until 1979. During this period, the wing-keeled Australia II was the state-of-the-art 12 Metre Class, and True North 1 was designed as a longer, heavier boat - specifically built to withstand everything that Fremantle, Australia could throw at it."
The yacht is now owned by the 12 Metre Challenge company.
