Hey Bob - what about the rule that the start line was an obstruction at all times?


Depends on how it is defined in the sailing instructions.


It was announced that the startline would be an obstruction at the skippers meeting. A few people (including some experienced sailors) forgot...

They also announced an offset mark at 'A'. I forgot about this the first time around but my buddies behind me reminded us rather vocally. We had to take the kite back down and go round it like good boys, feeling rather foolish.

Chris.


Aren't these "announcements" required to be in the sailing instructions or posted on the notification board by the time listed in the SI's for postings?
