Turn- und Sportverein Finkenwerder

Turn- und Sportverein Finkenwerder v.1893 e.V. -Abt. Segeln- (TuS Finkenwerder)
It is a white pennant divided by a green saltire. A white shield with a black sailing ship above green water, seen from prow, is superimposed above the crossbars' intersection point.

Sportverein Stahl Finow e.V. Abteilung Segeln

Diagonally divided black-blue pennant with a white triangle charged with a kind of "F" letter in red. Finow is located near Eberswalde. I believe Stahl refers to a steel factory, by comparison with the football-club Stahl Riesa in the former GDR. Abteilung Segeln is the sailing section of this Sportverein or sport association.

Freie Vereinigung der Tourensegler Grünau 1898 e.V.

White pennant with a black Scandinavian cross fimbriated black and white (1:2) and a green canton. According to the website name, the club might have been founded in 1898. Günau is located on the Dahme Langer See ("the long lake of the river Dahme"), in the former East Berlin.

This burgee - and a few others - are clearly inspired in the Imperial war ensign. I assume that all those clubs were established at least before WW2.

Tourensegler Grünau - Unidentified burgee

The yacht club website also shows an unidentified burgee similar to the Israeli flag — a white pennant with a (fully) blue six-pointed star and two blue horizontal stripes near the top and bottom.

(editorial note: information couldn't be verified, looks like pennant version of the flag of RGm Günau , a rowing club, kms 9 Oct 2012)
