Posted: Tue Apr 21, 2020 10:23 pm
Submission Type: Explanation
1.Your registered Boat Name: LG'07
2.Race Day: 5 (Grande Finale)
3.Group (colour): Top (blue)
4.Race (number): 1
5.Time (in Replay): 11:12
6.Rule(s) applicable: 10
7.Skipper(s) involved: LG'07 & SAF
8.Description: LG tacks on port and wants to pass in front of SAF. LG bears to keep clear and SAF bear also because he thinks there would have been contact. Therefore LG keep rudder angle considering SAF move : LG07 could have put more rudder to open her stern faster. In the end SAF bow passes quite far from LG' stern. The only question is : would there have been any contact if SAF hadn't moved ? In my opinion no, that's why I think pen is false.
Note : I attach my replay so that the protest committee can judge well.
Note 2 : I don't want to interfere in PC decision and I know all cases are different , but the example at this link shows it's possible to keep clear
despite appearances (actually in the case at the link I think port boat is less clear than I am in this race of MLS).
