True on a powerboat, not for sail. Proper place to fly the ensign is
off of the luff of the mainsail. Next best place is off the
backstay as
per your original post. Going up the backstay isn't a big deal.

You are wrong. Where is one to put the flag when at anchor or when
motoring?
And, if the flag is flown off the mainsail it should be two-thirds
of the way
up the leech. Fifteen feet doesn't quite get it.

It is wrong to fly the flag off the backstay because the angle is
incorrect and the
flag does not display properly.

Then there is the problem of courtesy flags which are shown off the
starboard
spreader. They should be above the ensign as a courtesy.
A flagstaff on the stern if the proper way to display the flag on
modern sloops.

CN


Proper is not proper if it is not functional. Besides, what about the
term stern staff don't you understand?

CN

Flagstaff or stern staff? It looks like neallie cannot even agree
with himself.
JR



A flag staff at the stern = a stern staff. Keep grasping at those
straws,
why don't you.

CN

I don't have to grasp at straws to show what an idiot you are. Just
quote you.
JR


But, you should at least endeavor to make a modicum of sense when
doing so.

CN
How can I and still quote you??

It's simple, you only have to quote me in context for anything I say
to make sense. Re-arranging reality reeks of reprobation.

I have not quoted you out of context. Remember you are the master at

bragging about hacking into peoples computers etc. Would you like me to

You are already obfuscation and avoiding the fact that you are grasping at
straws. You might as well toss in everything up to and including the kitchen
sink if you think it will lend credence your impotency.

No need to neal. It is would be a waste of my time. Most people already
know what a sad pathetic case you are and the rest will figure it out

Good luck with that "blue water yacht"

Ah, a klassic konundrum. How does one quote nil, and make any sense? Come to
think of it, what is nil trying to say here? That he is, indeed, an idiot?
That quoting him is "senseless"?
