Description of the flag

The Carolina Yacht Club was established in 1853. I doubt that it has always been located as it is now. But for what it's worth, it's located in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina, US, between the Intercoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean.

The club's burgee is a white field bearing a red five-pointed star. The size of the star seems to vary over time.

The American Yachts List for 1891 - Thomas Manning, shows the same burgee, but rather as a broad pennant.
