Case 35: In the photo below, three minutes remain to the start signal. Suppose Dan (Rebel 4180) fouls Bruce (4187) a few seconds after this picture was taken.
Does Dan have to wait until after the start signal to do his Two-Turns Penalty? Why (not)?

Answer:
No. Rule 44.1 states: " A boat that may have broken a rule of Part 2 while racing may take a penalty at the time of the incident."
