The normal protocol is to fly the national flag at the gaff, and the house
flag at the mainmast truck. Here is a photo of the Preussen:

arrangement.

...And others at other points of hoist depending on the circumstances--a
courtesy ensign when sailing on foreign waters would be at the fore, for

Here is another photo:
http://www.caphorniers.cl/preussen/preussen02_b.gif of one of the German
5-masted barques anchored in Valparaiso. (It is incorrectly captioned as being
the Preussen.) The Chilean flag is just visible on the foremast, as Joe
described. She also seems to have a second German flag on the mizzen mast, and
another, unidentified flag on the jigger mast.
