Burgee, 1903

image by Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 10 May 2015

The burgee,as depicted in the Lloyd's Register of American Yachts, 1903, is a 5:9 white triangle, with a dark blue border along its fly edges. The triangle is divided into two panels by a blue bar, angled hoistward; in the hoist panel are two red five-pointed stars pointing upward, and in the fly panel one such star.

The over-all impression is that of a blue sidewise A. I have no idea whether that's the correct interpretation, though, nor whether the stars, or the colours, have a specific meaning.

From the photograph at www.albanyyachtclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/about-now3-960x400_c.jpg, I would say this is still the design in use. In that photograph it appears to be used for the club flag as well.

Burgee, 1912

image by Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 18 May 2015

The burgee is depicted in Lloyd's Register of American Yachts for 1912 as well. There it's a ca. 7:10 white triangle, with a horizontal very dark blue A, its legs forming a border along the flag's fly edges and its bar angled hoistward. In the hoist panel are two small red five-pointed stars pointing upward, and in the fly panel one bigger such star.

Burgee, 2015 web version

image by Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 10 May 2015

On the front page of the club's website, however, the burgee is depicted as a 3:5 white triangle, with a dark blue border all around. The triangle is divided into two panels by a blue bar, angled hoistward; in the hoist panel are two red somewhat fat five-pointed stars pointing upward, and in the fly panel one such star.
