Turn- und Sportverein Finkenwerder

Turn- und Sportverein Finkenwerder v.1893 e.V. -Abt. Segeln- (TuS Finkenwerder)
It is a white pennant divided by a green saltire. A white shield with a black sailing ship above green water, seen from prow, is superimposed above the crossbars intersection point.

Sportverein Stahl Finow e.V. Abteilung Segeln

Diagonally divided black-blue pennant with a white triangle charged with a kind of F letter in red. Finow is located near Eberswalde. I believe Stahl refers to a steel factory, by comparison with the football-club Stahl Riesa in the former GDR. Abteilung Segeln is the sailing section of this Sportverein or sport association.

This burgee - and a few others - are clearly inspired in the Imperial war ensign. I assume that all those clubs were established at least before World War Two.

Tourensegler Grünau - Unidentified burgee

The yacht club website also shows an unidentified burgee similar to the Israeli flag — a white pennant with a (fully) blue six-pointed star and two blue horizontal stripes near the top and bottom.
