Flag of Royal Yorkshire Yacht Club

The ensign of the Royal Yorkshire Yacht Club (and granted in 1929, Victorian crown notwithstanding).
Ian Sumner, 25 June 2002

The special ensign of the Royal Yorkshire Yacht Club was granted in 1879, but transferred from the Red Ensign to the Blue Ensign in 1929.
David Prothero, 26 June 2002

That is the blue ensign of the Royal Yorkshire Yacht Club. The white rose is the emblem of Yorkshire, while the red rose is the emblem of Lancashire. When the House of Lancaster fought the House of York for the crown of England it was called the War of the Roses. The Tudors combined both the red rose and white rose to make the Tudor rose (red petals on the outside, white on the inside) and ever since the Tudor rose has been used for Royal Heraldry when a general rose is required. The separate white and red roses are still used by their respective counties and by state official especially connected with them. For example York Herald's emblem is a sun with a white rose in the centre, a "Rose en soleil".
Graham Bartram, 15 August 2000

The Royal Yorkshire Yacht Club was formally established in 1847 by Hull businessmen.
The RYYC was recognised by the Lords of the Admiralty (in 1847) by the issue of a warrant allowing members to wear the red ensign and burgee defaced with the Queen’s crown and white rose of York. This was changed to the current defaced blue ensign and burgee in 1929.

When the special ensign of the RYYC was red, so was their burgee.
