by Željko Heimer, 31 December 2017Only one Club in Italy, AFAIK, the "Yacht Club
Italiano", Genoa, is granted the use of a special national
ensign. The Club, established in 1879, as "Regio Yacht Club
Italiano", was presided in 1935 by His Royal Highness Amedeo
di Savoia, and in 1942 "e conferito l'onore ed il diritto
di battere la Bandiera della Marina Militare. Diritto revocato
dal Capo di Stato Maggiore del Ministero Difesa-Marina nel
1967." Which means they were granted the right and the honor
of flying the Italian Naval Military flag,
but I have a doubt about the Italian word "revocato".
If it means revoked, then the privilege is over since 1967, but
later editions of "Lloyd's Register of Shipping" still
published the military flag as the Club's ensign. If the
privilege was revoked, they can still use the Civil Ensign, that
is, with the lion of Venice holding a book, not a sword, and
without the naval crown.
