Thanks all for the contributions, it's been fascinating.  Glad I'm not alone in finding the situation slightly confusing!

I'm now regretting not throwing the flag and asking the question for real.  However, like I said I had other things on my mind at the time and the boats in question weren't in our class.  Frustratingly lost the race by 2s on corrected, and we left way more than that at this mark!

I think you can be as certain as possible that you picked the option that lost you the least time...

Further thought. Is that meta-room?
