As an old sailor, when you sail with the wind called a "Reach" the flag would point toward the bow. When sailing against the wind the flag points to the stern. This works the same with power boats, provided the wind is greater than the speed of the boat. That said, if the wind is calm or none, the flags and funnel smoke should should point away from the direction of the ship.
