A Burgee Tale
Tale From The Locker by Vicky Jefferis
(adapted for the web)
The colors of the America’s Boating Club – Golden Isles burgee tell our story at a glance.
The fiery red sunsets above the coastal marshes each evening— a daily spectacle of color washing across spartina grass and winding tidal creeks, unmistakably South Georgia.
The blue, broad Atlantic Ocean below the skies, defines our boating culture and reminds us of the power, scale, and responsibility that come with going to sea.
The great golden sun hovers in the middle — constant, guiding, and inseparable from the name of our beloved Golden Isles.
At the center of it all, a white seabird flies free with wings spread wide, symbolizing the freedoms we enjoy as a great nation and as boaters: the freedom to explore, to learn, and to pass our maritime traditions down to future generations.
Simple colors. Clear meaning.
A burgee that belongs exactly where it flies.
