[C38] How about a Burgee?

Charles, looking good, I agree with the three color options, how about number 5 with the red arrows on the perimeter in blue?  I think that with UV the colors may fade rather quickly and with more white it makes the other colors stand out IMHO.    If you need someone to make them there is a lady in Seattle that makes burgees and flags, she just made our battle flag for us and it was very reasonable, she also makes lots of yachty flags for the local chandleries.

Ok,
I have tried to portray the two suggestions so far.  I took figure 3 and
put blue where the white was (this is four colors).  I also split the
arrowhead into red and blue...
This is really at my design limits!  So, we have four in the running at
this point:

#3 Original
#2 Original
#3 Modified with Blue Background
#3 Modified with Blue Arrowhead

Any more ideas, input or whatever?

Indeed, Joe L. and Steve O. had one made a couple of years back but it was shelved due to cost (Steve reports it was more than $50).  I had my graphic designer nephew develop some ideas at the same time, but that too went on the shelf.
