Post by Johnpap71 »

Submission Type:E+P

1.Your registered Boat Name:Jonte

2.Race Day:3

3.Group (colour):green

4.Race (number):1

5.Time (in Replay):12:32 - 12:54

6.Rule(s) applicable:2-18.3-18.2

7.Boat(s) involved:Jonte, JohnPap, Black Pete, SAF, winslow

8.Description: (JohnPap writes it for Jonte)At 12:32 SAF is getting in the zone on port while Black Pete is on STB with overlap. SAF is doing a pen 13 to black pete and this makes black pete slow down and start luffing to make the mark. He can not make it so this makes him to tack in zone and becomes everlaped between john pap and Jonte and is under 18.3. JohnPap is luffing to avoid contact with black pete and not to get stoped and Jonte also luffs to avoid John Pap. This manouvre caused us both to come almost stopped. When we started to bear away there was contact betwwen the top of the masts from johan and johan pap and nadeo penalized me with 18,2,a. at 12:54. Iasked for cancel and John Pap canceled it.The whole situation was created because of Saf broke 13 and 2 by barging, making BlackPete to brake 18.3 and John Pap and Johan try to avoid by luffing.
If there was not a 18,3 from Black pete we were going to pass the bouy without luffing and without any contact to the masts.
I hailed protest to Black Pete.

Facts:
BlackPete on starboard, slightly under the layline.
Saf on port, starts a tack to leeward of BlackPete, inside the zone.
Before Saf completes the tack to leeward of BlackPete and the mark, Saf stops turning, and passes to windward of the mark.
BlackPete's bow hits Saf on the starboard side, then luffs and tacks around the mark.
JohnPap who was clear astern of BlackPete luffs above closehauled to avoid him.
Jonte to windward of JohnPap first luffs 1.5 boat widts to windward of him.
Jonte then bears away, his boat heel, and his mast hits the mast of JohnPap.
Jonte get a penalty from the VSK umpire under rule 18.2(a), which he cancels.
Saf took a penalty turn after rounding the mark.

Conclusion:
Saf deliberately broke rule 13 when he stopped turning, forcing BlackPete to luff.
Saf to be scored DNE for breaking rule 2.
BlakPete broke rule 18.3 with JohnPap, but is exonerated under rule 64.1(a).
Jonte broke rule 11 and 18.2(a) and shall be scored DSQ in the race.
