Ray Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Found aboard were 3 old but usable pennants, one is Volvo Penta but we have a Nanni engine. The second is the original style Broom red star and crescent which is entirely appropriate and will be flown. I don't know the third one which is where you knowledgeable folks come in please?

CambridgeCabby Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Could it actually be a Nanni one ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Posted August 13, 2021 Author Share Posted August 13, 2021 That's a good idea, I'll google Nanni π Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Posted August 13, 2021 Author Share Posted August 13, 2021 It seems not unless it's an old one. They currently have this mermaid in a stripy blue towel. Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotorBoater Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I can offer this https://nimbus.se/ Swedish boat builder since 1968 apparently. Identical but colours reversed (Or maybe your pic is upside down ?!). Might be worth asking them if the colours were ever the other way around, might be worth something to them !

Ray Posted August 14, 2021 Author Share Posted August 14, 2021 That's it! You also hit the nail on the head, my photo is upside down, although I didn't realise at the time π I wonder why the previous owner flew that one, it's quite possible I guess that with 3 pennant poles it was simply bought at boat shows/jumbles over the years. It has faded significantly so I'll retire it as part of the boat's history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
