Description of the flag

The Atlantic Highlands Yacht Club is a yacht club in Atlantic Heights founded in 1953. It lies on the opposite side of the bay of New York City. It's a good stop-over for people going into the city, or a convenient take-off for ferry rides there.

The burgee is a rare two-pointed one: A blue burgee to two points, and from those points a white wedge to the centre of the hoist. Each of the blue sections thus created bears a white five-pointed star, one point up, and the wedge bears the red sans letters "AHYC".

Their site, https://ahyc.clubexpress.com/content.aspx, includes the tantalising menu "Resources". "Tantalising" because anything worthwhile from a flag-information view point seems to be locked behind a login.
