Rules The races will be governed by the rules as defined in The Racing Rules of Sailing (RRS). Racing Rules will be changed as follows:
  • All races will be scored except there will be one throw out if six races are sailed. This changes Appendix A2.
  • A boat intending to protest must notify the RC as soon as possible after finishing. This changes RRS 61.
  • RRS A11 is changed to assign finish places to boats not finishing within the time limit of two points more than the last boat to finish on time.
  • RRS 26 is changed to allow Code Flag C to be used at the start without repetitive sounds.
  • RRS 44.1 and RRS 44.2 are changed for E-scows so that only one penalty turn, including one tack and one gybe, is required.
  • The Sailing Instructions may also change other racing rules.
E-Scows will be required to race with Float Paks at the top of the mast.
