There is no mention of club flags or association flags, and no sign of them
in any picture that I looked at. Boats (?) are identified, like racing
sailboats, by a combination of national code and individual number, affixed to
the upper part of the sail. The national codes, of one, two, or three letters
each, seem to be a development of the set formerly used by (I'm relying on
memory here) the International Sail Racing Federation, which has replaced them
by a set of all three-letter codes, which is not ISO3166-compliant. National
organizations participating in the Federation International of Sand and Land
Yachting (FISLY) are (except in one case) represented in its website by
abbreviations that do not conform to FISLY's own code set.
