Masthead pennants
Timothy Wilson\'s Flags at Sea has the following information about French masthead pennants in the late 17th-18th centuries:
Regulations of 1689:
* Commodores to fly a white broad pennant (cornette blanche) at the mizzen.
* Broad pennants in proportions 1:4, split for two-thirds of fly with pointed tails.
* Vice Admirals and Lieutenant Generals [Rear Admirals?] in command of fewer than 12 warships and Commodores in command of fewer than five warships are to fly an ordinary pennant except by special permission of King.
* Only Senior Commodore present flies a broad pennant; others fly ordinary pennant.
* On HM ships, no other flag, pennant, or ensign than white is to be flown (except for signals).
* Commander of a fleet of merchant vessels may fly a white pennant at the main, but take it down if in sight of HM warships
In 1790, the plain white pennant was replaced by a white pennant with a red-white-blue tricolor within a blue and red border in the hoist.
In 1794, the pennant became a blue-white-red tricolor.
The Mediterranean galley fleet was separate until 1748 and used predominantly red flags and pennants.
