External Double Revolving with Yardarm and Gaff – Rope Halyard
The Concord American Nautical Double Mast flagpole recreates the rig of a historic sailing vessel. High-strength aluminum brackets join an offset double shaft, and the pole comes with both a 10 ft 9 in yardarm and a 7 ft gaff. This 40 ft aluminum flagpole has an 8" butt diameter and .188" wall and flies up to five flags. This height is well proportioned for yacht clubs, larger waterfront homes, HOA and community entrances, and commercial properties.

How Flags Are Flown on a Double Mast Nautical Flagpole
This pole has five halyards: two from the double revolving truck at the top, two on the yardarm and one at the gaff. In maritime tradition the gaff is the position of honor, so the U.S. flag flies from the gaff even though it sits lower than the masthead. A club burgee or organization flag flies at the top, and state, company, officer or signal flags fly from the yardarm. That lets you display up to five flags in the arrangement used by yacht clubs and the U.S. Power Squadrons.
Choosing the Right 40 ft Model
Concord American offers 2 Nautical Double Mast models at 40 ft. They share the same height and yardarm and gaff, and differ in base (butt) diameter, wall thickness and the number of sections:
- NDM40D81 (this model): 8" butt, .188" wall, one piece, about 425 lb
- NDM40D82: 8" butt, .188" wall, 2 sections, about 431 lb
A larger butt and a thicker wall make a stiffer, stronger pole for open waterfronts and high-wind areas. Multi-section poles ship in shorter pieces, which makes delivery easier to residential and limited-access sites.
