The History of the Yacht Flag By the highest resolution of 15 August 1865. Permission to fly the pleasure craft flag, which consists of the Danish naval ensign with the letters YF in gold in the upper square nearest the staff, is granted upon application by the Ministry of the Navy, but only for decked vessels. The application, which must be stamped at the rate of 65 øre, must be accompanied by the vessel's tonnage certificate or certificate of nationality and registration. The yacht flag confers no privilege whatsoever on the vessel with regard to port and ship dues. The permission to fly the yacht flag, which is only valid until the vessel changes owner and must be kept on board and produced at the request of the competent authorities, is forfeited if the vessel is not used exclusively for pleasure sailing. In 1957, the obligation to apply for permission to fly the yacht flag was abolished.
