Modern Flag

The current flag of the Commissioners of Irish Lights features the St. Patrick's Cross, not the St. George's Cross as on the old flag.

Commissioners of Irish Lights is a cross-border body (although its HQ is actually in Dublin, Eire). Irish Lights vessels in Northern Ireland fly the defaced blue ensign; vessels in Eire fly the Irish National Flag.
