7. Description: I was sailing at full course, Fran swimming slightly ahead to the right. On the left, a shuraz was sailing slightly behind, and I had no room to turn from right to left tack. I got 17.1 wrongly and asked for the penalty to be canceled. Fran didn't cancel the penalty so in a moment I got another penalty after exceeding the time limit, so I am asking for Refress requests
