The yacht ensign of the virtual Club Powerboat, Ireland, is shown at
http://www.powerboat.ie/forums/index.php?/gallery/image/216-cpb-ensign.jpg.
Dark blue field with Irish national flag in the canton, and the club’s symbol,
yellow, in the fly.
Interestingly, the warrant is cited here:
http://www.powerboat.ie/forums/index.php?/topic/1514-warrant-to-fly-club-ensign
“I received notification this morning [10 May 2007, jm] that the Minister of
Transport has approved a warrant "authorising generally members of Club
Powerboat.ie Motorboat Club to fly on their vessels the approved flag in lieu of
the National Flag on specified Irish Ships has been approved in accordance with
section 10 of the mercantile Marine Act 1955, Formal approval by way of a
warrant is enclosed.
It is suggested that the warrant might be suitably
framed and displayed on the Club's premises or in your situation, their website"
(...)
Many thanks to all for their inputs over the last year on this Club
project and a special word of thanks to Gavin (Stifz) for his graphic design
input, the Mercantile Marine Office in the Dept of Transport and the Chief
Herald's Office in Dublin Castle.”
The text of the warrant itself is
accessible to members only, but we get the idea.

A special case among Irish yacht and motorboat clubs is Club Powerboat for
being entirely virtual:
http://www.powerboat.ie/forums. This website has a forum and member section
(including blogs), a calendar, a photo gallery, etc. Club Powerboat’s burgee is
offered here:
http://www.powerboat.ie/forums/index.php?/store/product/4-club-burgee.
“Club Burgees are the small triangular flags also sometimes known as pennants.
No particular flag etiquette is associated with or required with Club Burgees.
Th[e]y are just [a] nice way of telling other water users what Club you are a
member of. Our Club Burgees are a high quality double sided burgee.”
Attachment < ie~cpb.jpg > shows this elaborately designed item: dark blue field,
a boat screw seen side-on in the hoist, said screw and name “Club Powerboat.ie”
in the fly rendered in a burnished gold colour; evoking the screw’s movement in
the water are two meandering lines or sinuses emanating from it, coloured green,
then white, then orange - the national colours.
There is a yacht ensign as
well.
