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.
The use of small, 5.2 m ribs permitted the strategic positioning of the jury boats within the fleet to prevent propulsion that is not permitted.
The Laser class SIs change rules 36 and Appendix P4 to permit the jury to request redress if a rule 42 protest was signaled improperly.
The jury gave redress when a charter boat's hiking strap broke during a race. The reason was that the SIs did not permit the competitor to make an adequate check of the borrowed equipment to detect the default prior to racing.
