Question
Do the Notice of Race or the Sailing Instructions of an event have the authority to change or delete rule 55, TRASH DISPOSAL?

Answer
Yes. See rules 85.2 and 86.

However, attention is drawn to the Basic Principle Environmental Responsibility, which encourages participants to minimise any adverse environmental impact of the sport of sailing.

NOTE
From January 2021, rule 55 will be listed in rule 86.1(a) and thereafter such changes will not be permitted. See approved submission 147-17.
