It was one hell of a race. The images are amazing.
The first to finish, doublehander, BNC, got penalized for using a whisker pole
to prop up the clew of their assymetric. What a beautiful sight to see the
boat so well balanced flying dead downwind in total control.
It must be for safety reasons, but I don't understand why. Can anyone explain
why the sailing rules 55.3 forbid this use of a pole?
Thanks,
