List of sail codes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of sail codes for sailing yachts and the old codes, used until 2000 by the International Sailing Federation.

Mainsail Country Codes must comply with World Sailing Racing Rules of Sailing. ISAF Rules of Sailing Appendix G1.2 specifies that national letters shall be clearly legible and of the same color.[1]

They must be placed below the class insignias and above the sail number.

The complete list is published by World Sailing (formerly ISAF) and can be accessed on "Appendix G IDENTIFICATION ON SAILS" of the rules
