Sailing Protest Flag

In sailing races, protest flags play a crucial role in the formal process of raising an objection against another competing boat for potentially breaking the racing rules.

Use the Ronstan Protest Flag to Signal an objection.

When a boat believes another competitor has infringed upon the racing rules, it can raise a red protest flag as soon as reasonably possible.

This signals their intention to file a formal protest.

The Ronstan Protest flag can be quickly fastened to a shroud or stay and you can carry on to complete your race or series of races knowing that you have raised a protest that you can formalise when finished.

Features:

• Hook and loop fastener strips secure the flag around any stay.
• Rolls up to secure with locking tab, ready to deploy

Specifications:

• 140mm X 230mm
• Ripstop Nylon
• Hi-Vis Red
• Velcro fastening allows quick wrap around a shroud or stay to indicate your protest during a race
