The Racing Rules of Sailing 2017-2020 – Effective 1 January 2017

Published by under Race Officers,Racing

Just when you have attended the Racing Rules night, World Sailing has now published the next version of the rule book which we will be using next year and into 2020.

The book is available at http://www.sailing.org/tools/documents/WorldSailingRRS20172020-[20946].pdf and by looking within at the right margin, a vertical line indicates a change, addition or deletion.

The majority of them are simple technical changes to sort out small problems found in the application of the rules. However there is a introduction of the term ‘support person’, those people that are with competitors (coach, parents, etc) who through their behaviours can now cause a competitor to have a penalty. There is also a further additional section around Gross Misconduct.

I am sure in the the next 6 months many of us will interpret all the changes in various ways.

Nore Race line honours Kyle Stoneham

Published by under Racing

Line honours for Kyle on the foiling moth in 1hr 20, the total distance sailed an amazing 42km in the race with 72.4km covered on the day.
The fast cats doing 2 laps could easily have covered 85km in the race, quite amazing stamina needed for that in almost perfect conditions.
