I've changed the wording to :
<br>
<br>
<br>RIGHTING
<br>
<br>Each boat must be equipped with a suitable righting system allowing
<br>the boat to be righted by the crew without outside assistance with respect
<br>to all the sailing conditions that can be encountered.
<br>
<br>A particular boat and crew combination may only participate in a
<br>race or sailing event when the crew sailing the boat is considered
<br>to be able to right the boat unaided by the F16 HP authority or
<br>the acting authority when the first is absent.
<br>
<br>Crews may be asked to demonstrate their ability to right their boat by
<br>the F16 HP authority.
<br>
<br>
<br>**************
<br>
<br>I've added the last paragraph to give the event committee explicit rights to enforce this rule. And because the first rule is mainly directed to designers which may design a boat for a crew weight of 160 kg's. It is not certain that a 130 kg's is than able to right the boat in all conditions. In the last situation, the light crew mayb claim that the means to right the boat are there and overlook the fact that they need to be able to operate it successfully
