  • In addition to what has been conveyed by Captain Jaiswal, before the start, when the leeward boat luffs, she is limited in her actions by rule 16.1.

  •  Hi Jim,
    No, I did not change the size of the zone or contemplate doing so. When using a waypoint it is very hard/impossible to judge how far one is from a waypoint using a chart plotter or handheld GPS. My view is that for practical purposes the size of the zone is really irrelevant. 

    In the end I decided to use the WS Appendix WP as is, rather than do something unusual. The thinking is that maybe the drafters thought through the issues better than I did.
