Royal Cinque Ports Yacht Club
Dover is one of the Cinque Ports, which were nominated in historical
times to provide ships and men for the defence of the country, in
consideration of which they were granted certain privileges particularly

members of the Royal Cinque Ports Yacht Club who comply with special
conditions can apply to wear the Blue Ensign...
