There is, but the most significant ryle is probably this one:
31(b) if the boat caused injury or serious damage or gained a significant advantage in the race or series by her breach her penalty shall be to retire.


which states that in the event of serious damage just doing turns is not adequate. Of course that does depend who was at fault...

is there a rule stating that colision must be avoided ? it seemed completely unfair because she crashed into my boat and ruined my fibreglass hull, she knocked my brothers brand new burgee and sunk it and grazed a few other toppers and oppies. all of us did our turns and everything but it seems unfair to not punish her for careless sailing...
