Nautical Signal Flags
Join our email list!
The following flag signs are representations of international signals used by ships at sea.

Signal flags provide a way to communicate information relating to safety, distress, medical, and
operational information, especially when language difficulties arise.
Each flag has a unique and complete meaning.

Strung from the forward waterline over the bow to the masthead, then over the stern to the aft
waterline, signal flags can also be used to dress ships for holidays or special occasions.

Our signal flag wood signs provide nautical flair for all homes,
whether you are seaside or miles from shore!
