I think that if I were setting a course I would be tempted to have a VERY shallow trianle as in two spacer bouys about 7-10 mtrs apart at the windward end. I would be tempted to have two more bouys, - perhaps a little closer - at the bottom. This would be to give the umpires less work sorting out th...

I am just curious, what were the distances (aprox) used at the Worlds in Australia? Regards Gyula It depended on the course of course. I heard a few Americans complaining about the distance to the downwind leg on the course that was used most often and it does echo the comments I made about 10 mont...

The Chairman said "..and if the umpire doesn't call you, well, you've got away with it and that is all part of the game. Not in sailing" And if you are on the losing end of the incident, well the onus is on you to put up with if for not knowing the rules at that point. So the umpire or "umpire" (I'm...

The original post asked if there was ANY obligation for an umpire to correct an infringment (the example was a windwd boat leaning on a leeward boat all the way to the finish line. The umpire said nothing. The windward boat is listed as the winner). It seems that the answer is no, none whatsoever. S...

Umpires Obligation?
If an inexperienced sailor doesn't call an encroaching windward boat to luff out of the way as both are approaching the finish line, does an umpire have any obligation to make the call if he/she is witnessing it? What about ongoing events as in a windward boat leaning on a slightly behind leeward bo...
