D2.1
When Rule D2 Applies; Redress and Breakdowns
- (a) Rule D2 applies to umpired races. Races to be umpired shall be identified in the notice of race or sailing instructions or by the display of flag J no later than the warning signal.
- (b) A boat that protests under a rule listed in rule D2.2 or D2.3 for an incident while racing shall hail ‘Protest’ and display a red flag and is not entitled to a hearing. This changes rules 60.2(a)(1) and 63.2(a).
- (c) A boat requesting redress for an incident in the racing area, or requesting a breakdown score change under rule D5.2, shall conspicuously display a red flag at the first reasonable opportunity after the incident or breakdown. She shall display the red flag until it is acknowledged by the race committee or an umpire.
