Dannebrog owner
editJust a doubt... is the Dannebrog owned by HM The Queen of Denmark herself or is it owned by the Danish State?
I'm asking this because it is posibly the same case as the Spanish Royal Yatch Fortuna. The King's Yatch "Fortuna" is of National wealth, forming part of the properties of the Spanish state agency Patrimonio Nacional (National Heritage). --MauritiusXXVII (Aut Doce, Aut Disce, Aut Discede!) 16:48, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
As I understand it Dannebrog is similar to an English crown possession, i.e. the Monarch owns it. It is not listed alongside various National Heritages, but rather as a part of Kongehuset (The Royal Court). See this link for more info.Mecil (talk) 19:00, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

HDMY/KDM?
editThe ship is called (or rather titled) "Kongeskibet Dannebrog" in Danish. Se the official page of the Danish Court or the page at the Danish Ministry of Defence. There is no KDM (or HDMY) in use. "Kongeskibet" means "the royal ship". Those pages also says "Kongeskibet Dannebrog is an indepenent command administered by the Queens yacht-captain, member of the Royal court staff". --Episcophagus (talk) 13:25, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
