While discussing flag etiquette, it got me to thinking of the flags I still
need to find..

Looks like I'm going to be doing a lot of singlehanding, (no one wants to
sail with an 'ole fart')..

I know there is a semi official flag for singlehanding. Just a silhouette of
a hand in a circle, on a contrasting field... However the only one I
remember seeing was in a black and white photo..

Does anyone know where to purchase such a flag, ready made or the specific
details and color so I can make my own..

I assume that it is kinda like the 'battle ax' flag that evolved and became
the excepted standard..

As final note, I propose that anyone who flies the singlehanded flag be
excussed or exempt for all other flag etiquette/requirements.. Mainly
because he already has his hands full when entering and departing and
everyone should have a degree of pitty for his lonely situation. Same would
hold true if he happens to forget to take in his fenders, upon leaving the
dock.

Just my thoughts (suffering from 'cabin fever')
