Yankee Signal Flag – Nautical Letter Y

This Yankee Signal Flag is an authentic salvaged piece built for real nautical use. It measures approximately 72″ x 48″ and remains in excellent condition. However, the fabric shows visible wrinkling from storage and handling.

Along the white rim, you can clearly read “Size 14” and “Letter Y.” These markings confirm its classification and onboard use.

Ships used this flag within the International Code of Signals. The Yankee flag signals “I am dragging my anchor.” Therefore, crews used it to warn nearby vessels in busy anchor areas.

The material remains durable and continues to hold up well. As a result, it still works for display or collection.

Today, this flag fits well in offices, bars, or coastal interiors. It adds authentic maritime function to a modern space.
