Case 7:
In the photo below, what rule does 442 appear to be breaking?
Answer:
442's boom end appears to be touching a rounding mark, so he is
breaking rule 31.1. Under
31.2, he now needs
to immediately get well clear of all other racing boats and do a
One-Turn Penalty. Here, with no other boats nearby, 442 can probably
just wait for 739 to proceed and then do his Penalty around the mark if
he likes, but a turn around the mark is not required.
