Marine alphabet (& a free printable poster)

Today Foggy & Cloud teach you the International Marine Alphabet (also known as flag semaphore). You can learn more about semaphore from Arthur Ransome's Winter Holiday or read this excellent student project by Susan Laflin.




You may download and print this mini-poster to help you with your messages. This is taken from the inside dust-jacket of Foggy.



(I made an extra colourway for fun, so you can download the blue one here and the yellow poster here). As usual, all rights from the Windy series reserved © Judith and Robin. Happy signaling.
