RC Duty

Look at the 2021/2022/2023 RC Guides for

Mondays are not very taxing, though there are a few decisions to make regarding the course.

Compared to previous years' programmes:

the Sharks will sail a different and much shorter course labelled Course "B"
- Sharks may have a second start
- Sharks may shorten course back to the centre
- Sharks may change course to a different windward mark
Record data in two separate logs
- record the first start and all Course A finishes in the main log
- record all Course B finishes and the second Shark start in a separate log
the Racing Rules of Sailing have tweaked starting and finishing lines:
- boats start or finish when their hull meets the line, sails no longer count
- the end of the start line is the Orange flag
- the end of the finish line is the Blue flag unless the course is shortened …
- in which case, the end of the finish line is the S flag

Other than a simplification to the start/finish line this is unchanged from 2021.
