Some 40 sailors from Herne Bay, Tankerton and Hampton are ready for the new season racing season following a lively introduction to some of the 2017 racing rules by Sam Brearery.
Thanks to Sam's drawings and clear explanations rules such as Rule 18.3--If a boat in the zone of a mark to be left to port passes head to wind from port to starboard tack and is then fetching the mark, she shall not cause a boat that has been on starboard tack since entering the zone to sail above close-hauled to avoid contact and she shall give mark-room if that boat becomes overlapped inside her--now make sense! Thanks to Sam, Laurie, Simone and Karl.
