• "Rules Governing the Duration of Flag D Display Ashore Before Start"
  @Ang - I agree that having an image of the flags in the documents is a good idea as many sailors know the basic ones but not the all.  It helps them create a direct association in their minds rather than searching for a flag chart.
  
  I have only seen the D flag used at larger Opti events.  It is my understanding that it is serving a dual purpose, the class wants to have some limit on the kid's overall time on the water and the organizers want to know when people are going out to help them keep track for safety reasons.

• Simplified 18, 19 & 20 for club racing?
  David,
  
  The insurers will decide if they payout and how much of the total they will contribute to.
  But they do not decide the right/wrong of an incident nor the quantum of any payment.   
  That is ultimately decided by authorities conduction inquests and/or courts if there is a dispute about it.
   
  If a boat racing with an unaffiliated club (without an aquatic licence) is found at fault of a serious incident, then they are still liable of any penalty/damages decided by the courts, but they may be unable to pay if their insurance company decides not to contribute.  We are required to have $10,000,000 of personal liability coverage because damages can be significant for serious incidents.  I don't think most skippers can pay such sums if their insurance decides they were not covered due to racing outside of their guidelines.

  Gotcha. Since they all have handicaps, would you consider scoring them based on their adjusted average speed over the night? Basically handicapping the whole fleet against each other.
  To me, that seems more fair than comparing them based on the place they finish within their fleet of completely different competitors.
