Rule 18 is quite complex with many factors which need to be taken into account to decide if a boat should get room at the mark or not. The first step is to understand the positions of the boat when the first boat hits the zone which is a circle 3 times the length of the first boat to reach the mark. In this video it was 108 feet as the J109 leading into the mark is 36 feet long. The A35 which was approaching from behind was going a lot faster and established an overlap shortly after they entered the zone, they tried to barge in but the skipper on the J109 new the rules and held firm forcing the the A35 to do a tack and a gybe to round the mark and avoid a collision. The knowing the rules and clearly signalling the opposition boat when you reach the zone is the only way to make it clear to your competitors that they have no room and they should keep clear.

🪢 Sunday Boat Tip [3/52] 🪢 Living on a boat means having a very endless space to store things. And the games we bought from Sweden have long since been played til boredom! So when we recently started to learn how to play Backgammon (actually on the plane to Trinidad) we started looking for a board that we could bring onboard. But our game box is full, and we didn’t really find anything good. So I started to browse the App Store and found an app that does everything that we wished for; we can play against each other offline, the pieces don’t roll away if there is a sudden wave and the dice can’t end up in the ocean… Win-Win!!! Have you tried any old school games in a digital form? What do you think about it, yay or nay 👍🏻👎🏻? And most importantly, do you have any other games that we can play like this that we can add to our digital collection?! We need to stock up! Please comment below to help us out 🤗
