- Coat of arms of Saba
-
The coat of arms of Saba was established in 1985 by the island council of Saba, when it was still part of the Netherlands Antilles and remained the coat of arms of the special municipality Saba after its dissolution.[1] It consists of a shield with the local bird Audubon's Shearwater and the islands itself. The weapon also contains a fish, a sailing boat and potato, which are symbols for fisheries, Saban seamen and the Saban potato. The motto is written the shield Latin: Remis velesque (literally with oars and sails).
