  18. KEEP CLEAR GIVE ROOM It Depends 18 Rule 18 MARK-ROOM Preamble – “… does not apply at a starting mark surrounded by navigable water or at its anchor line, from the time boats are approaching them to start until they have passed them.” 1st It Depends – Are you approaching the starting line to start? 2nd It Depends – When BLUE sticks her bow in, is there room for her to pass through?

  19. You be the judge Can BLUE pass through? We think no. 2nd It Depends – When BLUE sticks her bow in, is there room for her to pass through?

  24. KEEP CLEAR GIVE ROOM

  25. At the protest hearing YELLOW says …

  26. At the protest hearing BLUE says …

  27. KEEP CLEAR GIVE ROOM Who is most likely to sway the protest committee? 16 10 YELLOW says … BLUE says … You probably know the answer. The “why” may surprise you. Who has the onus? Preponderance of the evidence (or the balance of probabilities). Hear all the evidence. -- Weigh the evidence. -- Whichever has more weight – 49% / 51% In this case starboard is usually in a better position to see the situation develop and determine whether she needs to change course to avoid a collision, so her evidence is given more weight.

  28. WINDWARD 2 The tactics of a duck

  37. WINDWARD 3 Piggy In The Middle

  38. KEEP CLEAR GIVE ROOM Rule 20 – “When approaching an obstruction, a boat may hail for room to tack and avoid a boat on the same tack. …” BLUE, Please keep clear. RED, Give me room to tack please. Okay. Here I go. BLUE must: Be required to make a substantial alteration of course to miss the obstruction Be sailing a close hauled course The obstruction is not a mark. Hail (what?) Give the hailed boat time to respond After hailed boat responds, must tack ASAP 20 Hailing for room to tack. What happens if BLUE does not really need to tack? RED must respond (and protest).

  39. RED is now at a bigdisadvantage. She is the leeward boat on pinned stbd tack. Does she have a better response?

  40. Rule 20.2(c) “The hailed boat shall … tack ASAP, or (Response Option #2) by immediately replying ‘You tack’ … .” BLUE, Please keep clear. ‘YOU TACK’ What? Okay, YOU TACK RED, Give me room to tack please.
