The Northern Ireland flag had its official status removed in 1972 following the collapse of the Northern Ireland government. It is based on the red cross of the English flag with the six pointed star (representing the six counties of Northern Ireland), the Red Hand of Ulster (an historic symbol of the province of Ulster - origins of which are unknown) and the Crown, representing the British monarchy.
Peter Burling and Carl Evans finished 11th in the 470 class and Hamish Pepper and Carl Williams finished 9th in the Star class.

The Official Flag has a Red Hand (the traditional symbol of the Irish province of Ulster) within a star that has a Crown on top (representing loyalty to the Crown), in the centre of a red cross. Of course, you wouldn't catch the Republicans waving this flag, they prefer to use the Irish Flag instead.
