What a week!
 

US Sailing symposium turned out to be pretty good.
Gary Jobson, Dave Perry and 260 other sailors and
lots of rum.
Gary looked pretty good - thin, but seems to be
recovering well. He spent a fair amount of time
talking about the past and his memoirs. That's a
little depressing.
Dave had a real good discussion on the new rule
changes, then several hours on application and
tactics to benefit from them. Buy his book.
All in all, a great time. Then welcomed home with
snow.
S.

You have any rum left over?

That's a dumb question.

What are the new rule changes?

Dave Perry has a nice racket going? Every four
years the rules change! Hence a new book.

Basically:
Preamble clarifies that international regs take
precedence when a racing boat meets a non-racer.
14 adds injury to a person
16.2 only applies when P is passing astern
19.1 a boat cannot hail for room to tack unless a
substantial course change is necessary
30.1,2,3 I, Z and black flags are flown as prep
flags
31.2 one turn including a tack and a gybe replaces
a 360° turn
41 certain types of outside help are legalized
42 sculling is permitted when above close-hauled
and trying to turn back to close-hauled or when
trying to reduce speed
44 two turns that include two tacks and two gybes
replaces a 720° turn
Those are the basics. There are several other
changes that pertain more to the RC.

Dave does have a nice racket going, but he has
worked for it, and it couldn't happen to a nicer
guy.

Glad to hear he's looking better. His pictures have not been
encouraging. As for spending too much time talking about the past, it
may be an age thing!

Was planning on it. BTW thanks for the look ahead at the rule changes.

All in all, a great time. Then welcomed home with

We had temps in the teens this weekend. Yuck. However I know a great way
to keep the boat from freezing... run it!
