I had thought about adding a small arial type pole to the bow rail, and fix the burgee to that so it will act as a wind direction aid for when I'm docking......but so far no other boat in Torquay marina is flying theirs so in the best British tradition........I'll wait until someone else does it first.

Do you get a discount on your mooring fees if you fly it?
Free advertising for them otherwise.. :D

To be honest I can not see the point of it. What does it do ?
Just advertise the fact of your home berth and free advertising for MDL.

If they want me to fly it then pay me :D

I totally agree. At least last year's water bottle and cooler was a little bit useful.

No they wont pay you, you have paid for it because they have bought it out of the money you all pay them :)
