Some judges around here certainly have a different opinion.
LOL, differences of opinion among judges are
far from uncommon. In fact, I have a list of rules I believe have problems and just today I sent out a paper detailing my disagreement with an ISAF Case.
From time to time, the Area D judges discuss various rules, ISAF Q&As, US Sailing Appeals, and hypothetical situations. Although our debates are usually quite interesting, I don't recall a single instance where we reached a consensus. I don't expect this time will be any different.
