English: My own work using MS Paint 2015, Photoshop 2018 and Lunapic Transparency editor. The Navy Board, whose emblem was a 'greater anchor between two smaller anchors'. The image is based upon this official image: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Somerset_House_marine_heraldry.jpg and the descriptions outlined at this source: https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/gb-lha.html#anchor3.
This amended version is the correct one based upon an illustrative plate image of the Navy Board Flag in 1832 is from the book by John William Norie (Hydrographer) published in 1832. The flag of the Navy Board is on page III (3) image No 5. Source here:https://books.google.lk/books:Plates Descriptive of the Maritime Flags of All Nations Front Cover by John William Norie J. W.
