10 Clinio Freitas Brazil BRA 7

Clinio won an Olympic Medal (bronze, I believe) crewing Lars Grael's Tornado. I don't know how he is sailing nowadays, but certainly above average. I wonder if he is sailing the SambA Cat...

Hey Matt,

I'm sending you an email about this, hopefully you can clarify something for me.

Mike

PS: Apologies if this is a hijack. We're being trained to "always check the book." You had to be there to understand...

To continue the hijack (and to show how much freaking material we're covering to get our RRO and Judge certifications)

ISAF Regulations


Mike is correct. An IRO is not required. "Reserving the right to appoint" is not the same as "required."

However, an International Jury is required at a Worlds. PU is the Canadian on that Jury, and since he is an IRO, too - he will act as a course consultant.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled A-cat lovefest . . .

Aren't rules fun???

While not "rules", you all should see what ISAF has to say regarding black flags (Race Management Policies for ISAF Events). Here's a hint: If there's nothing wrong with the setup of the line, go immediately to black flag after first general recall. The RO really needs to have their stuff together!

That will help with a 100 boat line at your love fest! Hard core... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
