So I would like to answer Anonymous question about rule 13 applying, hoping my foot does not end up in my mouth.<br /><br />Rule 13 does apply when boats are in the zone, as do all the Part 2 Section A and Section B rules.<br /><br />But in the incident described the blue boat does not break 13 because she has kept clear of yellow until she reached a closehauled course and 13 is then turned off. <br /><br />Rule 18 does not initially apply since the boats are on opposite tacks on a beat to windward. But when blue passes head to wind both boats are now on the same tack and rule 18 kicks in even though the boats are already in the zone. <br /><br />With rule 18 now applicable, and because blue is completing her tack in the zone, she is “subject” to rule 13 in the zone and then when she causes yellow to sail above close hauled, she breaks 18.3(a).Dicknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170261917486213112.post-80224173333210839832009-08-27T01:09:15.582+02:002009-08-27T01:09:15.582+02:00does rule 18 even apply since the boats were on &#...does rule 18 even apply since the boats were on 'opposite tacks on a beat to windward.'(18.1a) Rule 13should apply.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170261917486213112.post-6733722927579388592009-08-26T11:41:12.221+02:002009-08-26T11:41:12.221+02:00@ Anonymous.
