History of the Yacht Flag
Highest resolution of August 15, 1865. Permission to hoist the pleasure craft flag, consisting of the Danish naval ensign with the letters YF in gold on the upper field closest to the mast, is granted upon request by the Ministry of Marine, but only for decked vessels. The application, bearing a 65 øre tax stamp, must be accompanied by the relevant vessel's measurement certificate or nationality and registration certificate. The yacht flag does not give the vessel any advantage whatsoever regarding port and vessel fees. Permission to fly the yacht flag, which is only valid until the vessel changes ownership and which must be kept on board and presented upon request by the relevant authorities, is lost when the vessel is not exclusively used as a pleasure craft. In 1957, the obligation to apply for permission to fly the yacht flag ceased.
