Image from this site, reported by Franc van Diest, 26 Jan 2002. RNYC is the oldest of all the sport Clubs in South Africa and the oldest yacht club in Southern Hemisphere. It was founded in May 1858 as the Durban Regatta Club. Name was later changed to Natal Yacht Club. In 1891, the club was chartered as Royal Natal Yacht Club. The club burgee is a 3:5 triangular flag with a Scandinavian cross blue-red-blue and a royal crown in canton. The crown on my image should be credited to Tod Mills.
