  • I have looked at the vidio you highlighted again.
    This to meis not like my comments on the single trigger. 
    I have no problem with leaning on the boom to move to weather, nor bearing away after. 

    The rock, which clearly seems to gain speed, worries me. 

    Doing it more than once as shown, is repeated, and i think i would flag a foul. 
  • "Futile to resist." Okay. But I still ask for clarity from WS.
    "Others are toying with messaging apps" This really hits home. My local clubs are using WeChat, ubiquitous in the country in which I reside. It's a great messaging app with a ton of great features, but it's extremely weak in other areas, such as search and export. Diagrams on a cellphone? Confirmation of receipt? It's more of a toy than a tool in these areas. Not to mention how well salt water and cell phones mix.
    Thanks for your insight, Ben. Deep and well-considered. But I still have some concerns and reservations. Especially when working in a language which isn't native to me.

  • Warren .. found it.  I haven't visited it since 2021 so it is what it is.  Just to be clear, it was just a simple compilation of all the rules that we should check ..  to see if there was need of a change to those rules (if allowed by RRS 86). 

    Spreadsheet: Rules that use Start and the rules those rules touch

    There are 2 sheets .. one was based upon the terms .. the next was sorted by the rule.   Anyway .. it was just a WIP worksheet to get a scope of all the places we should look if an NOR/SI approach was used (as opposed to the WS DR). - Ang
