Abstract: A support device suitable for flying a pennant, flag or burgee from an elongated support element. The pennant support of this invention is characterized by its provision of elements for removably attaching the pennant support to the support element in a fashion whereby the pennant support is free to pivot, or rotate, about the support element. Thus, when a pennant, flag or burgee is connected to the pennant support there is virtually no chance of the connected indicia becoming tangled or twisted around the support element. Alternative embodiments of the pennant support are also disclosed whereby it may be used for attaching such indicia to shrouds, stays or halyards as the support element so that the indicia may be raised and lowered with respect to the support element.
