The club statute describes the flag and burgee (corneta)
of the club but does not illustrate them. I used the anchor depicted on the club badge as the
model. The club, founded in 1884, has its in-town clubhouse at Botafogo Beach, its yachting
facility at Charitas in Niterói, across Guanabara Bay, and its social and rowing
facility at Piraquê in Rio's Zona Sul.
