Two white seahorses on blue.
António Martins, 23 July 1999
According with a real estate outdoor add I’ve seen recently, the Lagos Marina
Yachting Club flies a triangular flag with an yellow cross on a purple background,
charged with a purple "FIAV" knot on its center. A 2:3
panel of horizontal
alternating purple and yellow stripes was also shown in this add, but I dont know
if it is really a flag. Since Smith [smi76] show
pairs of triangle plus rectangular flags for some yacht clubs, I supppose that it
at least could be one.

Either they changed their colours recently, or this flag is wrong (due probably
to the fading of the outdoor’s colours?). I have a drawing in paper of the same
flag, also taken from an ad, and I’ve seen it flying live. In both these sources,
the flag is dark blue with a dark yellow cross. The knot is also dark blue and it
is in the centre of a dark yellow horizontal elipse.

White with blue stripe, over all a blue ogival shield bordered by a golden
rope and showing a white sail ship on white waves and white thick letters
"CVL" vertically arranged.

I also have a drawing of a similar flag: the flag of the Naval
Association of Lisbon (ANL - Associação Naval de Lisboa). It has the same overall
characteristics, but the cross is white charged with a yellow anchor inside a vertical
red elipse.
