I found a members list of the Hudson River Ice Boat Club of Poughkeepsie, New
York at
http://hudsonrivericeyachting.blogspot.com/2014/01/hudson-river-ice-yacht-club-book-1888.html.
The list includes depictions of the club signal as well as flags for the
commodore and the vice-commodore.
The HRIYC is likely from 1885,
according to the HRIY blog spot. Today, the club especially aims to preserve the
ice yacht tradition of the Hudson River valley. Ice permitting that includes
preserving the ships and sailing them. Whether this has been an ongoing
tradition since 1885 or whether the current club is a recreation, I don't know.
I did notice that the same signal is in actual use today.
The signal of
the HRIYC is a pennant with blue field with on it a two white hoistwise stripes
with over them a red flywise stripe. The flag for the commodore has that same
pattern, but as a flag. The flag for the vice-commodore is similar but has only
one white stripe.

The American Yacht List - Manning, 1896 allows me to add a flag for Acting Commodore: As is quite a common design, it's a simple blue flag.
