A Quick/Short Overview of the new Rule Changes in RRS 2009‐2012 Tom Downing tmdatanet @ msn.com
The goal of these Rule changes will have been achieved if current racers hardly notice a change and if new racers find the rules more consistent and easier to follow.
The major changes in Section C are intended to make the new rules simpler and less ambiguous. They do not ‘switch off’ the basic ROW rules. They eliminate exceptions. They clarify which rules apply at marks /obstructions and they continue to discourage contact. The Major Rule Changes: • Rule 17 – On the Same Tack; Proper Course • Rule 18 – Mark Room • Rule 19 – Room to Pass an Obstruction • Rule 20 – Room to Tack at an Obstruction There are also major Definition changes: There are added new definitions: Fetching, Mark Room, ‘Zone’ There are modified Definitions: Obstructions, Clear Astern and Clear ahead; Overlap, Finish “Old” Rule 18 has been modified into 3 new Rules for the new RRS. Rounding Marks - Rule 18, Passing an Obstruction Rule 19, Tacking at an Obstruction – Rule 20. Incorporates the definitions: Fetching, Mark Room, Obstructions, Clear Astern and Clear ahead; Overlap, The ‘Zone’ RRS 18 still does not apply: When boats are not required to leave the mark on the same side When boats are on opposite tacks to windward Boats on opposite tacks but the Proper Course for one but not both is to tack At a starting mark surrounded by navigable water When one boat hails for “room” to tack ‘Old’ RRS 18 applied but ‘new’ RRS 18 does not Coming and going from the mark.
