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 NOR and SIs presented no issues although there were amendments to each to clarify minor points. None rose to the level of "problems."
The requests for redress for OCS were resolved through informal discussions with the race committee that identified an RC error in one case or convinced the competitor that no error was made by the RC.
One arbitration resulted in a 20% penalty, the other in 30% penalty. Both were conducted under US Sailing Appendix T.
There were 5 course circles plus one point-to-point race. This created logistical and staffing challenges, but all racing areas function smoothly throughout the three-day event.
