We definitely need a new burgee for our boat. The official club colors are red, white, and blue. After a couple of years exposed to the elements, the red in our burgee is faded to pink. The white circle has gone grey. The blue star is pretty much black.
I resolve to pick up a new burgee next time I'm at the club and the office is open. I hereby challenge other club members with tired and worn out burgees to do likewise. Bad as the burgee is on our boat, it's not close to being the worst on Dock 2.
It might be possible to take the burgee home and wash it in a solution of Tide with Bleach. That might brighten it back up again, without the need to purchase a new one. What's the worst that could happen? The poor thing will disintegrate into disjointed threads, in which case we *still* need a new burgee.
