Is there no fimbriation between cross and canton? The flags
looks a little bit strange.
Jan Zrzavy, 24 July 2002
From that small photo, I would say no fimbriation.

In corr. 3 (2003) of Album des Pavillons [pay03], I have presented AG Coast
Guard Ensign, classified as ---/-S-.

The Coast Guard are probably not part of the Navy, which does
not seem to exist. Encyclopaedia Universalis Yearbook says that
the armed forces in Antigua and Barbuda are 100 men member of the
Eastern Caribbean joint defense system.

An image of the flag is seen
here. This picture shows the national flag as jack and Coast Guard ensign as
well. It’s clearly visible that the ensign is longer than the national flag; its
proportion seems to be 1:2. (image archived).
Another image is seen
here
(image archived), where also a 1:2 version
is pictured.
In a Youtube video about a Coast
Guard exercise, the ensign is clearly visible from 2:45 and from 2:54. Its
proportions is evidently 1:2. Red is darker shade (British red), but blue
stripe is lighter.
