- ummwhat 5y agoBut, rather importantly, was there a Union Jack in the corner of that big red flag?
- chanandler_bong 5y agoOh, very good...
- willyt 5y ago<pedantic nasal voice> Actually as a Royal Navy ship, she would fly a white ensign, not a red ensign. </> (Sorry, couldn't resist)
- soneil 5y agothe Endeavour was sold to private ownership 2 years before she was scuttled. So I do think a red ensign would be appropriate.
- codeduck 5y agoEndeavour flew a red ensign during her service in the Royal Navy, as far as I can determine. The White ensign only became the ensign of the entire Royal Navy in 1864, prior to that it was flown by ships of the White squadron of the Royal Navy. The Red ensign was flown by ships of the Red squadron, as well as by private vessels belonging to British subjects. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_ensign#History https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_ensign#History
