British Flag Signal Association

The British Flag Signal Association (BFSA) is an organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the history and practice of signal flag communication used by the British Royal Navy. This method employs a set of distinct flags to convey messages between ships, especially during the age of sail when radio was not available. The BFSA provides resources, workshops, and events to educate the public and enthusiasts about this unique form of maritime communication, fostering appreciation for naval heritage and skills in flag signaling.
