Alan, Thanks for the clarification. I had it about right in my mind but occasionally slip back to the earlier rules and want to yell “mast abeam” at somebody.
Martin Calypso 1970 C&C 43 Seattle From: CnC-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Alan Bergen Sent: Friday, April 12, 2013 2:36 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Stus-List Race Video After the preparatory signal (boats are now racing and must sail by the racing rules) but before the starting signal, the leeward boat can sail all the way up to head to wind. After the starting signal, she cannot sail higher than close hauled. Boats must still avoid contact if at all possible. Crossing the starting line has no effect on how rules 11 and 14 are applied. Alan Bergen C&C 35 Mk III Thirsty Rose City YC Portland, OR Alan, Does Dave Perry’s 2016 RRoS book clarify the difference, if any, between before the start and after crossing the starting line regarding Rule 11 and 14? It has been a while since I read Dave’s last RRoS book but I recall something about the right-of-way boat having more flexibility before the starting gun. Martin Calypso 1970 C&C 43 Seattle
