The Dumpy Book of Ships and the Sea (1957) shows the burgee blue with a large anchor (fouled with rope) surmounted by a crown.

This club continues merged as Royal Northern and Clyde Yacht Club.

The Northern Yacht Club apparently assumed the title ‘royal’ because King William IV, when Duke of Clarence, had been a patron of the club. Royal patronage did not entitle a club to call itself ‘royal’, and in any case the patronage was withdrawn when the Duke became King. The club’s title ‘royal’ was not officially authorised until 1909. [National Archives HO 44/21 and HO 144/1060/188871]
The first club to be granted the title ‘royal’, after the Yacht Club (later Yacht Squadron) in 1820, was the Irish Yacht Club in 1831.
