Description of the flag

In 1945/1946, the Normandy Beach Yacht Club was formed. It lies on the stretch of barrier beach north of Atlantic City that separates Barnegat Bay from the full Atlantic Ocean. As there's really only one direction, it's probably of note that the club's location is at exactly 40°N, and indeed, the club makes that visible in its logo.

After 30 years, the NBYC became a member of the Barnegat Bay Yacht Racing Association. Recently, an even more momentous occasion was celebrated: In 2021, the club had existed for 75 years!

The burgee of the NBYC is white with a red lining along the flywise edges, and bearing the letters "NB" in blue.
