[Burgee of CNMB]

Burgee of CNMB - Image by Ivan Sache, 29 May 2005

The burgee of CNMB is a 1:2 triangular flag, red with a white triangle in the middle. The elegant geometric construction of the flag involves four triangles, three red and one white, of equal size.
The flag can be seen on the poster announcing the European Championship of Vaurien Class, which took place in Cerfontaine from 28 April to May 2001; the race was organized jointly by Sport Nautique de l'Eau d'Heure and CNMB.

A drawing on the website of the FFYB shows the burgee of the RCNMB similar to the burgee of the previous CNMB, but with a crown added in upper hoist. The website of the Tournai Yacht Club shows a photography with a slightly different version of the burgee, with the crown placed in the centre, in the more traditional manner adopted by a number of important Belgian yacht clubs, and a thin vertical stripe near the hoist bearing the club initials in red on white.
