There was an injured crew at the AC and a substite crew was permitted; I believe Robi was the substitute crew!

Never the less, at that regatta a great deal of anger was voiced at the notion of sailing 2-up one day and 1-up the following day.

I feel certain that if someone attempts that at the up coming Area D South, there will be strong protests. IMO, we need a solid classs rule for any protest committee to refer to.

For the record, I'm in favor of one configuration for any serious event. Start 1-up, stay 1-up.
Start 2-up, stay 2-up.
