| Hugo v Race Committee (Race 3) |
| Abstract HUGO requested redress claiming that the Race Committee made an error in not scoring many boats as OCS (on the Course Side at the Start) after many boats started a minute before the starting signal. During the hearing HUGO accepted that she had thought the P flag would be displayed for 5 minutes and had planned her own start accordingly, whereas for the past 12 years the standard starting sequence required the P flag to be displayed for only 3 minutes (up at start minus 4, down at start minus 1). HUGO agreed to study the race starting procedures during the lay day. |
