Create a sketch used in a protest hearing under the racing rules of sailing, using the following inputs: Scenario Windwardâleeward beat. Boat A (starboard tack) and Boat B (port tack) are on a collision course. B attempts to cross ahead but there is contact. Boat A (Protestor) Statement âI was on starboard tack, close-hauled. B was on port and attempted to cross ahead. She misjudged and hit my port bow. I held course throughout. There was no need for me to take avoiding action until the last moment.â Boat B (Protestee) Statement âI believed I could cross safely. A changed course slightly up just before the crossing, reducing the gap. I tried to bear away but couldnât avoid contact.â Ver mais
