8.Description:
BatBoat is sailing port and tacks to starboard just before top mark (red mark). Umpire sanctions a rule 13, which is wrong, since BatBoat is on close hauled when umpire sanctions rule 13. Actually there is something like 1-2 boat widths when BatBoat is on close hauled, so Kvien has plenty of time to change course in all directions. The correct ruling should be Kvien is in violation with RRS 10.
