• 18.1(a)(2)
  I do not understand alll the emphasis in beat to windward.
  It is obviouswhen this applies, though the caseconfuses matters on overstanding.
  
  Match racing, owing to the type of penalty has its own rules..
  
  For the overstanding just look at 18.1(a)2
  
  This was designed for this, opposite tacks, with one having a proper course to tack.
  
  Do we need to look further?

• How long is the race committee allowed to change the position of the first windward mark?

  Sue, The position of the marks may be adjusted slightly for small shifts in the mean wind (+/-5 degrees) without signaling a change of course. Any adjustments will be made before the first boat is on the leg to the adjusted mark. This changes RRS 33.

  
  

  How does this sit with Race Management Policies 12.1(a)
  
  With a persistent wind shift of 10° or less the course will not be changed unless necessary to
  adjust for current or to provide a true downwind leg.

  FWIW, as I read RRS 32.2, the "S" flag replaces the blue flag referred to in Race Signals.

• NOR adherence to SAS requirements
  The OSR are not listed as rules in RRS Definitions Rule and are not designated by WS as a rule (listed in RRS 6).  They do not automatically apply.  They need to be switched on in NOR 1 with words like 
  
  1.2  The World Sailing Offshore Special Regulations applicable to Category X races apply.
  
  Where X is to number of the Category selected by the OA.
