When looking at replay, After Peppino is back on close hauld course, Duffy at no point changes course to avoid. PC finds that Duffy had time, about 2 seconds, so Duffy forces the contact. He should have acted promptly, but didn't. Therefore PC finds that Duffy breaks RRS 11.

Decision:
Peppino pen cancel accepted, no further action.
Duffy DSQ for breaking RRS 11.
