Facts:
LuisRomeroAbarca disconnected after 21 minutes of the race, just before the last windward mark.
He was in 2nd place, aprroximately 3 boat lengths ahead of 3rd place.

Conclusion:
LuisRomeroAbarc to be given 2 points as redress.

Note:
No boats in top 10 who had more than 1 boat length lead to the next boat, lost it's position on the last leg.

Standard note for redress cases:
When applying MLS rule 3.5.1.d, the protest committee will in such cases never give the benefit of the doubt to a boat disconnecting. The closer to the finish line, the less the doubt is. A boat disconnecting before the first mark is not likely to get a redress better than last place. A boat shall never be able to deliberately disconnect and calculate a redress score that would give a beneficial result.
