This video shot by www.droneproject.eu shows tight action at a windward mark during the RC44 Cup in Marstrand, Sweden the first weekend of July 2021. The lead boat RUS 21 shows great down-speed boat handling. She does several quick tacks in succession and luffs around the windward mark, all the while staying in front of the fleet. The question is: did RUS 21 pull off a slick move to round the windward mark first or should she get the flick for breaking a rule. Things to think about: When RUS 10 originally tacked from port to starboard, was she in the zone? Does 18.3 apply RUS 21 got room from RUS 10, was RUS 21 entitled to luff after rounding the mark. Watch the video and draw your own conclusions. The answer is on the UK Sailmakers.com site in the Rules Quiz section. V

Winner of #Classicboat magazine's #Restoration of the Year Over 40 ft Award 2020, the registered UK National Historic Vessel HERON II is a beautiful 1936 Fred Shepherd design, now revived with a modern touch to meet the desires and capability of current times. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/726/HERON%20II She slices through the swell with “... a good turn of speed”, as reported by Uffa Fox in 'Racing, #cruising and Design', and is roomy and bright inside, with a stylish and practical living space. Inside and out she is a thoughtfully evolved #classic, finished to a high standard in keeping with her original build. HERON II offers more sleeping accommodation than most #vintage #yachts of this size, lending herself to comfortable cruising and day charter opportunities.
