THIS SECTION MAY BE COMPLETED BY ANY JURY MEMBER
Comments on rule questions, new interpretations, problems, unpopular Rule 62 (Redress) decisions, summary of the facts, conclusions and decisions of Rule 69 (Allegations of Gross Misconduct) actions, problems with Sailing Instructions or Notice of Race and experience with experimental procedures.
Championship, with 120 men and 40 women, limited entry, had 112 protests or request for redress. None for OCS. On Qualifying Series most protests related to tangle incidents with request for redress. On final series most protests were from Gold Fleet and related to right of way incidents.
Interesting discussions on when is a kite looping and subject to RSS F22.5.
Protests related to RSS20 have led to a re-examination of rule wording for kites, given the distance and background noise involved in most situations, where it is impossible to hear or see other sailor signals.
Excelent race management making the best of area restrictions and strong winds. Excelent overall championship organization both from the local organizer Kiteboard Tour Asia (providing room and board free to all participants) as from IKA.
