• Rule 17 upwind before and after the start.
  The other typical example used in classrooms is the leeward boat was in the midst of a late luffing maneuver vs Windward to clear a lane below her .. or attempt to push W over the line when the gun goes off.
  
  Leeward needs to fall to her close-hauled course after the gun assuming she has the space to do so.

• Definition "Party" + RRS 76.3
  As per definition of Party 
    The boat requesting for redress. Further if the redress is requested for an improper action or omission by a body, then in accordance with RRS 61.4 (b) (1), that body is also a party to the hearing.
  In this case (RRS 76.3) it is the Organizing Authority against whom the allegation of improper action / omission.

   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.
