I've got the first-ever instance of the rule coming into play! Shot on Jan. 4,
2009. The inside boat saw the original Sailgroove video. The outside boat did not... Check it out: http://www.sailgroove.org/videos/coverage/view_video/2343522 /110273 Edited by thedinghysailor |

Quote:- "Thats going to be carnage at big handicap events isnt it??" I think that the loophole applies for team racing - which has a special Appendix. The rules for "normal" racing are different. Hopefully we won't have the problem of a team race using the same marks at the same time a normal racing - that would be a nightmare because the rules would be different.... Colin |

The "loophole" is in rule 18.2(c) "However, if either boat passes head to wind or if the boat entitled to mark room leaves the zone, rule 18.2(b) ceases to apply".
The incident seen on the video will be rare in fleet racing, simple because the leading boat will not often wish to delay their mark rounding in order to hold up the boat clear astern or overlapped. Gordon |

Let's try another one. This is a new, maybe questionable move for team racing:
