Name Pennant taken from the 2,480 ton Argentinian fishing vessel NARWAL.Commandered and engaged in spying operations during the FALKLANDS WAR.

On 9th May 1982 after shadowing the British Fleet the vessel was bombed and straffed by two 800 NAS Sea Harriers, then boarded by ropes from Sea King Helicopters by the SBS.

 

This is the GENUINE ARTICLE - removed prior to its sinking and has been in my possession since the 9th May 1982.

 

Pennant shaped and measuring - at the widest part of the triangle 36" inches  x 136" inches in length approximately - (this was probably originaly 144" making it 12ft as the extreme tip was missing).  With a white cotton background and red cotton lettering individually stitched to BOTH sides - spelling out NARWAL.  The rope attachments to broad end are intact.

Most importantly - the manufacturers logo badge - sewn on "SHIPMATE", white lettering on a blue background.

 

Any questions about this item are welcome - the photograph shows the incident with two Sea Kings hovering above the Narwal, but is not included in sale.

 

Many thanks for looking.
