Wow! What a learning journey is underway - flags, jacks, ensigns, proportions - we are all going to be well briefed in time for 'Obscure question No.42' in the New Year Pub Quiz.

Darren, did not know that that part is also steel now.

Apart from a few early Series I's, the bulkhead has always been steel and it can be a real rust trap, unfortunately.


I think the confusion might(?) perhaps stem from that when we had opening flaps they were made of aluminium on a steel bulkhead but nowadays they are just a pressing in the bulkhead (which is of course steel).

So, having the variant used by ships (The civil and state ensign, used by Swiss ships and boats, has the more common proportions of 2:3.), I'll have to sail my Defender on the Lake of Geneva, next time I am in Switzerland... Laughing


Vincent, you are welcome to do so. Keep me informed if that happens, as I know some good spots at the lakefront where we can sail the Defender to and dock to have a nice lunch Thumbs Up You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

I'm sure you wouldn't be docking your (amphibious) Defender on Lake Geneva - maybe berthing, coming alongside or mooring? Either way it's all good entertainment and I'm sure Eric knows of some top class spots for a very civilised luncheon. I'm just surprised the Swiss still allow Defenders on their roads.
