Lima Signal Flag (L) – International Nautical Signal Flag
The Lima signal flag, also known as the L nautical flag, is a bold yellow and black checkered flag that represents the letter L in the International Code of Signals.
Traditionally flown by vessels to communicate a warning, the Lima flag sends an important maritime message:
“You should stop your vessel immediately.”
Our premium Lima nautical signal flag is made from durable, weather-resistant 700D polyester and printed on both sides for a vibrant appearance from any direction. Whether displayed aboard a boat, strung together to spell a family name, or used as a unique piece of coastal wall décor, the Lima flag brings the enduring tradition of maritime communication into your home.
