Giving Mark-Room
- (a) When the first of two wingfoils reaches the zone,
- (1) if the wingfoils are overlapped, the outside wingfoil at that moment shall give the inside wingfoil mark-room;
- (2) if the wingfoils are not overlapped, the wingfoil that has not reached the zone at that moment shall give the other wingfoil mark-room.
When a wingfoil is required to give mark-room by this rule, she shall continue to do so for as long as this rule applies, even if later an overlap is broken or a new overlap begins.
- (b) Rule 18.2(a) no longer applies if either wingfoil referred to in this rule changes tack.
- (c) If the wingfoil entitled to mark-room leaves the zone, the entitlement to mark-room ceases and rule 18.2(a) is applied again if required based on the relationship of the wingfoils at the time rule 18.2(a) is re-applied.
