Not true Matt. The H16 SI's from Ventura have rule 11.5. The 5 knot rule. As you know, on the beach we could hear all the mark boats reporting wind readings and no race was started in less than 5 knots. All the old Si's I have also have the rule. The only different one is from the MEGA that states as I've said before. "The desicion by the RC to start or not start a race is not subject to redress." This would solve the redress question as asked above. My opinion is that there should be the 5 knot rule at 5 day events and the RC should keep readings. If that was done there would be no grounds for redress. If a couple of days go by without any sailing then amend the rule as was done by Mark.
As long as I have been reading the term "as determined by the RC" I have been wondering what that ment. This whole process may clear this up in the future. Let's not blame RC or sailors. Learn something and move on.
