Taking a Penalty
A wingfoil may take a penalty in accordance with rule 44.2 when she may have broken one or more rules of Part 2 or rule 31 in an incident while racing. However,
- (a) when a wingfoil may have broken a rule of Part 2 and rule 31 in the same incident she need not take the penalty for breaking rule 31; and
- (b) if the wingfoil caused injury or serious damage or, despite taking a penalty, gained a significant advantage or caused significant disadvantage to the other wingfoil in the race or series by her breach, her penalty shall be to retire.
