Burgee

The boat club itself flies a blue burgee bearing a stylized yacht, represented by two red triangles, above two white wavy lines; for good measure the yacht flies a small white burgee.

The wavy lines represent two eels for which Lough Neagh is well known. Close inspection reveals the rounded head with a dot for the eye at the left hand end of the white bodies.
