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