Hi Jonathan,

In a conversation where I mentioned "Past Commodore", I was told by an ex-Naval Officer that once a Commodore always a Commodore. With that in mind, I believe the Past Commodore's burgee should be flown in the same manner as the Commodore's burgee.

At our Club an executive member does not qualifies as Commodore unless he completes the full term.

So, that burgee is flown improperly on both counts, IMHO.

        Cheers, Russ  P.C.

Could anyone please clarify whether it is proper etiquette for a past-Commodore's flag to be flown day and night on a boat that is moored permanently in the waters of a Club for which the owner of the boat was NOT Commodore. Etiquette rules that I can find are explicit on current Flag officers flags - but I can't find and references to past Commodore's flags
