The Buzzards Yacht Club has existed since 1930. Their primary mission was and
is family racing and sailing. They also have Sailing School for children and for
adults. Also, the Buzzards are members of the Southern Massachusetts Sailing
Association.
They have a burgee, described in their By-Laws:
"Article
VII
Distinguishing Signal
The distinguishing signal of the Club shall
be a colored Burgee, its hoist being two-thirds of its length. A diagonal white
stripe of equal width throughout its length, the upper edge of which shall
comprise the middle one-third of the upper edge of the Burgee, shall run
diagonally to the tack of the flag. Two triangles comprise the rest of the
Burgee. The upper triangle shall be red, the lower triangle blue. A five-pointed
red star shall be superimposed on the center of the white diagonal stripe."
