• REDRESS: ".....as fair an arrangement as possible...."
  Somehting I have seen IJs I have worked with is to ask what redress they believe is appropriate. This is a tough one but in such a situation how does one come up with redress that is "as fair and arrangment as possible for all boats affected". Even if the person had done well in lead up regattas, they are different fleets in different conditions and potentially even different equipment (save the good sails for the big races) so I would have trouble considering this to give any meaningful redress. Without any mark rounding information or rough placement at the time of incident I don't believe you could assign any place to the affected boat. Sometimes its a cruel sport but that's the way it is.

  To answer The original question, it depends if the Y flag is still flying. Or in the case argued elsewhere, if it is persistent after being lowered, unlike other signals.  But if for the sake of the argument, Y flag is up still, then they technically broke the rule, but it should not be enforced unless there were aggravating circumstances as it was after the time limit.
