• Rule 18.2(d)
  This is a common issue when sailing in restricted waters. For instance if Turquoise could give room because of the river bank, or a line of moored boats.
  Red does not have room so must keep clear under RRS 11.
  If Red gybes on to starboard then RRS 15 applies and she must give all 4 boats room to keep clear, including  space to comply with their obligations under Part 2 and 31

• Prescriptions of other MNA's?
  I'll update RYA, NZL and CAN here on RRoS so that they are imbedded if you choose them in the pulldown.   The others can be accessed under the rules tool bar, which links to the WS Rules page. 
  
  I'll shoot a flare here when the other 3 are entered.

• 2025-2028 US Sailing Prescriptions Updated
  Justin re: "@Angelo I'm intrigued by your strong opposition."
  
  I, and the judges I serve with, do not receive any compensation from US Sailing.  Therefore, a non-US Sailing member boat before my panel is not getting any more of a "free ride" than another.   
  
  Also, there is no requirement that a PC have any USS Certified Judges on the panel.  Certified and uncertified judges alike ... we volunteer to the OA typically ... not US Sailing (unless USS is the OA). 
  
  Finally, I don't want to be bothered managing who's  paid-up or not .. and managing funds.  What a royal PITA that would be.

• Appendix T - Arbitration
  John P ... it actually would not even take a full, new, word-efficient sentence.  Maybe a small edit like below would make the USS-JC's view clear....
  
  Top of page 75 ...
  
  

  If the arbitrator believes that one or more boats broke a rule [(and were not exonerated)], he or she should say which boats may have broken those rules (again, without stating why) [without identifying the rules by name/number or the arbitrator's reasoning,] and then list the options available to each party, including:
  • Taking a Post-Race Penalty,
  • Retiring, or
  • Not taking a Penalty
