Protest Defender vs Zee-Pol

Post by defender »

Submission Type:

1. Your registered Boat Name: Defender - IT wolves

2. Race Day: 04/20/2021

3, Group (colour): Green

4. Race (number): 1, Tusk

5. Time (in Replay): 9:58

6. Rule(s) applicable: 13 and 20.2

7. Boat(s) involved: Defender vs Zee-Pol

8. Description: Zee passes head to wind in front of Defender and they becomes overlapped.

Soon after, in view of a port approach to Balder, right of way, at 9:58 Defender writes in chat « RTT ». Zee takes 4 sec to tack thus not giving space to Defender to take in turn. Mast collision cannot be avoided.

Zee broke the 13 and maybe 20.2.

Should 4 sec be considered as a reasonable time to react ? The mast hit is a consequence and I apologies to Balder for this.

9. Print Screen attached (required for a manual protest):

In my opinion, I responded to the rtt call in less than 4 seconds. In addition, I would like to note that the protest was filed on April 21 at 08.08 P.M. after the protest submission deadline.
