RF4020 - Protest Flag
Hook and loop fastener strips secure the flag around any stay. Rolls up to secure with locking tab, ready to deploy.
If your boat length is over 6m and you wish to protest, then you must display a protest flag in order for a protest to be valid!
From The Racing Rules of Sailing 2025-2028:
"60.2. Intention to Protest
- If a protest concerns an incident observed by the protestor in the racing area:
- If the protestor is a boat, she shall hail ‘Protest’ and, if her hull length is longer than 6 metres, conspicuously display a red flag, at the first reasonable opportunity for each. She shall display the flag until she is no longer racing. "
