Seebrucker Regatta-Verein

Here is the burgee of this german sailing club, the Seebrucker Regatta-Verein, from Seebruck, Bavaria, Germany. The image I have shows a triangular flag with a very light blue field and a sail with red and white stripes attached to a white mast; the burgee that can be found today in the club's website is similar, but the field is medium-to-dark blue instead and there are some differences in detail in the sail's stripes.

Seglervereinigung '72 e.V.

White pennant with five horizontal blue stripes fimbriated in white and two dark yellow right triangles fimbriated in white. White and blue are the municipal colours of Pforzheim.

Spandauer Yacht-Club Berlin e.V.

Ivan Sache, 12 June 2002

It looks like the colours of this burgee are taken from the 1861-1912 flag of Berlin.
Santiago Dotor, 13 June 2002

Segelverein Speichersee Emsland e.V.

Horizontally divided blue-light blue-blue pennant with a sailing boat with a yellow [spinnaker] and a [white mainsail] and the letters "SvSE" in blue in the light blue stripe. Emsland is the area located between the Dutch border and river Ems. There is another Speichersee in Bavaria.

Sportbootvereinigung e.V.

Or Sportbootvereinigung im Deutschen Motoryachtverband e.V. Triangular flag, tricolour blue, white and red, vertically disposed, with the white band smaller than the other two and the initials SBV in black near the hoist.
Jorge Candeias, 6 December 1999

Just wanted to tell you that there are some little errors in the burgee of the Sportbootvereinigung:
The colours:
- the Blue is as skyblue as the one in the flag of Luxemburg.
- the "Red" actually is orange, but a bit more red than the Orange in the Prinsevlag of Netherlands.
- The upper band is the orange one and the lower band is the skyblue one.
You can find a picture of their burgee on their official webpage.

Segelclub Staffelsee e.V.

White pennant with a blue chevron, a white chevron and a blue tip, theletters "SC" and "STS" in blue placed horizontally on upper and lower host, respectively. Staffelsee is a small lake located near Murnau, in southern Bavaria.

Segel-Club Steinhuder Meer e.V.

White pennant with a red Scandinavian cross and a shield diagonally divided white-red-blue placed in the middle of the cross. Steinhuder Meer is a lake located near the city of Steinhude, west of Hannover. Castle Wilhelmstein is located on a small island in the lake.

Ivan Sache, 6 June 2002

Steinhuder Meer is in the territory of the former state of Schaumburg-Lippe. According to this webpage:
"In 1761, count Wilhelm started the construction of Wilhelmstein, a fortress on an artificial island in the Steinhuder Meer. (The military school in this fortress was later to produce the famous General Scharnhorst.)"
White-red-blue are the colours of this former 'Land', which are still used nowadays and probably this is why they appear on the escutcheon of the Segel-Club Steinhuder Meer, with the slight change of placing them diagonally.
Santiago Dotor, 7 June 2002

Stuttgarter Segel-Club e.V.

Light blue pennant with a yellow border. In the middle, a yellow-blue roundel fimbriated in yellow. Letters "St", "C", and "S" in yellow placed in the three corners of the burgee, respectively.

Motorboot Verein Süderelbe e.V.

It is a pennant having a blue vertical stripe at the hoist with a white propeller. The fly is horizontally divided into black, red and yellow. Within the red stripe is the club’s name in white letters.
Source: I spotted this flag at the clubs boat house on 3 October 2007. It was however a doorplate, having a real propeller instead of an image.
