Staniel Cay Yacht Club is based on the island of Staniel Cay.
This island is nestled in the magnificent chain of Bahamian
Islands called The Exuma Cays (a.k.a. "Exumas").
Staniel Cay lies approximately 75 miles south of Nassau and 250
miles of southeast of Florida. The island itself is less than 2
square miles in area. A small Bahamian village lies on the
western shore, just a short walk south from the Staniel Cay Yacht
Club. The burgee of SCYC is white with a blue border all around,
a red >
shaped figure inside and the letters SC in blue inside the red
>.

One of the non-UK yacht clubs whose members may apply through
club secretary to the Second Sea Lord for an individual warrant
for a special ensign if they own a British registered yacht is
Royal Nassau Sailing Club (Bahamas) - Blue Ensign with club
badge.

This RNSC ensign was approved by the club's secretary. RNSC's
website can be found at <www.rnsc.org>.

This afternoon, a very nice Royal Nassau Sailing Club ensign
arrive from Nassau. We found it interesting as its proportions
are 2:3. Apparently, the club orders its ensigns from the US
instead of having them made in the UK. The defacement in my
illustration is placed exactly as it is on the ensign here with
the tops of the letters "R" and "C" touching
the horizontal center point of the fly.
Anyway, since the RNSC's actual usage ensign varies from the
standard variety British 1:2 ensign, I thought we might want to
post this along with our 1:2 RNSC ensign.
