Posted here for discussion and general comment.Resolution:
WC_AGM2006_03
Proposing NCA / WC Member:
Anders Wallin (IOMICA VC Infocomms)
Proposal:
Change C 7.7(c)
From:
"(c) A headsail boom topping lift restraint line attached to, or passing around, the topping lift may be attached to and/or passed around any or all of the following: topping lift; headsail; headsail halyard; headsail stay."
To:
"(c) A headsail boom topping lift restraint line attached to, or passing around, the topping lift may be attached to and/or passed around any or all of the following: topping lift; headsail; headsail halyard; headsail stay; headsail boom."
Discussion:
Interpretation 2004-IOM-5 found that a rubber band used as a topping lift restraint line cannot be attached to the topping lift and then hooked around the boom. The proposed rule change would allow this simple and cheap use of a rubber band as a topping lift restraint line.
Exec notes:
This is a special resolution and will require a ballot of Certified Owners.
