The Explorers Club Flag No211 awarded to Korseai for the Fournoi Underwater Survey 2017

The Explorers Club flag has an illustrious history dating back to 1918. It has flown at both poles, from the highest peaks of the greatest mountain ranges, and traveled to the ocean’s depths, the lunar surface, and outer space. A flag expedition must further the cause of exploration and field science.

The award of the flag is a significant accomplishment. Since 1918, the flag has been carried to all Earth’s continents, under the sea and into the stars. To date, 850 explorers have carried the flag on over 1450 expeditions.

In 2017, the Fournoi Underwater Survey was awarded flag #211 for the significant contributions to exploration made by the team. A report of the expedition will forever be a part of the Explorers Club’s documented history. Carrying an Explorers Club flag into the field places Korseai’s research and Fournoi as an underwater archaeological site of extreme importance on the world’s main exploration stage.

Flag #211 is a specifically designed dive flag and the Fournoi Underwater Survey 2017 was its 6th expedition, it has previously flown in the Caribbean, Israel, Canada and Curacao.
