I loved the courtesy flag for Panama, You have to remember which is the
proper way up. They didnt like it very much when you flew their flag upside
down :P

What is the proper courtesy flag to fly in your two countries? Are
they
just smaller version of your national flags, or do you have a special
maritime flag, like our red ensign?

thanks.

Yes, courtesy flag for both countries is the National flag flown from
the starboard spreader.

The courtesy flag should be .5 inches for each foot of LOA.


thanks both of you.
