Larry,

Hope this answer helps:

From SailorSpeak (edited by Jeff Crowell):

A hoist of flags is always read from the top down; when multiple hoists are displayed, the signal is read top down, outboard to inboard, and from forward to aft. As a rule, a signal too long to be shown completely on three halyards is made into two or more displays.

Question, Friends: If there is more than one row of signal flags on a ship, how are they read; Port to Starboard or Starboard to Port?

Thanks,
