Area C SI's are planning on using this language in the SI's.

8.0 THE COURSE Courses will be Windward-Leeward, see attached diagram with the leeward gate being located approximately 100 yards to windward of the start/finish line. The leeward gate will be a represented by two marks. Marks will be inflated orange cylinders or balls. If a Gate mark is missing and the RC has not placed an object or boat at the gate location with code flag M, then the remaining gate mark shall serve as the rounding mark and is to be left to Port.
