Nice video. But, looking at section 4, the run: Can you explain how the behavior, as described here, is not a violation of 42.2(b)? I get that the rolling was linked to steering, and that the roll was consistent with the turn, but there was no mention of waves in the video. The world sailing May 2021 interpretations of Rule 42 seem to be very clear that "repeated rolling not linked to wave patterns is prohibited, even if the boat changes course with each roll". I could crudely paraphrase that as "you can't rock downwind on flat water just because you are changing course in sync with your rocking". Right?
Clear as mud. 😢 It seems very subjective. Thanks for the info, at any rate.
the best explanation for r42 mistakes I've ever seen. And great actress playing that!
Thanks to the RYA for producing this. It will certainly help sailors' understanding of the written rules on propulsion.
