Red Ensign Flag - Printed Showing the country of registry of a vessel, the Red Ensign indicates it's nationality. It should be placed as close to the stern as possible, the most senior position. A UK flagged vessel must fly her Ensign when entering or leaving a port overseas, and is recommended that it is worn at all times in daylight, especially when near to, or in sight of land or another vessel.
