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.

It's over two months since beautiful Mischief was reported stolen by charter guests in Croatian waters . There is no news and there are no further updates. We still cannot believe it, it’s still so surreal, and no less devastating to it's owners! Never mind that they lost their boat, the emotional distress of dealing with the admin of the theft is very real for them on a daily basis. All we can do is just hope that somewhere in the world just one person notices her, notices that something seems out of place and doesn’t look right and reports it. It will just take one vigilant person to do the right thing. Are you that one person? Any information: mischiefsailingyacht@gmail.com OR https://www.facebook.com/MischiefSailing
