Bob:

Maybe this could be a quiz type of forum where there is a question about a sailing situation to be answered? Maybe one that is not too easily answered so we could banter it around?

I will start it off with a Gate question.
Two downwind boats coming to the gate. If they round port (downwind left mark) then the Starboard boat has inside room at the mark. If they round starboard (right mark while looking downwind) then port boat has inside rights. Know that they will both be rounding the same mark whichever mark they choose. How much room does each have to give in each of these situations?

Thank you Bob for starting this,
Dan
