Burgee Collection Introduction

A digital catalogue of the burgees presented to the Island Sailing Club by visiting yachtsmen and members over many years, housed within our clubhouse in Cowes.

The burgees have all been photographed and catalogued, and this website will enable you to find out more about a particular club by visiting its own website or viewing its location within the clubhouse.

The Burgee Collection is also available as a hard copy version held in a Photo Album located in the Bar area (near the balcony doors) within the Club.

About the Project

Some clubs may no longer exist or may have merged with others. At the moment, we have not been able to obtain web addresses or other information for a few clubs.

This project began in 2016 by two club members: Rod Nicholls and (at the time) thirteen year-old cadet member Reece Nicholls. All the photos, web design, layout, and technical development have been carried out by Reece. Rod worked on collating data, researching clubs, and verifying history.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this project! If you can help or find any corrections needed, please contact us at contact@isccollections.org.uk or the Island Sailing Club at admin@islandsc.org.uk.
