Red Race 3 Explanation
Posted: Tue Nov 10, 2020 10:48 pm
Submission Type: E
1.Your registered Boat Name: euphoria
2.Race Day: 3
3.Group: Red
4.Race: 3
5.Time: 11:53
6.Rule(s) applicable: 13, 64.1(a)
7.Boat(s) involved: Orione, euphoria, Nick-Cromit
8.Description:
Orione tacks when he for sure is not able to complete his tack before I have to avoid.
And before he completes his tack, he stops turning, making it impossible to avoid contact by passing astern, which I have committed to.
We crash and I lose almost all speed, and with the smallest margin I was not keeping clear of Nick-Cromit on starboard.
If Orione did not break rule 13, I would have keep clear of Nick-Cromit. I'm asking for exoneration for the rule 10 under 64.1(a).
I would like to highlight that I didn't mean to hit Orione, but when a boat makes an unexpected move, breaking the rules, it's difficult to re-process all input around the situation in short time and choose the perfect response. Had Orione not tacked on my nose, I would have been 2nd around the mark and not near Nick-Cromit.
