The Racing Rules of Sailing (RRS) are updated every 4 years. Every racing sailor, coach, official, and regatta organizer should own a Rule Book for ready reference.
August 29, 2022: RACING RULES OF SAILING, FRENCH EDITION – RULE 40.2
It has recently come to our attention that, in the French edition of the 2021 2024 Racing Rules of Sailing published by Sail Canada, the last sentence of rule 40.2 was not printed in the rule book. The complete text of rule 40.2 reads as follows:
40.2 When Rule 40.1 Applies Rule 40.1 applies (a) if flag Y was displayed afloat with one sound before or with the warning signal, while racing in that race; or (b) if flag Y was displayed ashore with one sound, at all times while afloat that day. However, rule 40.1 applies when so stated in the notice of race or sailing instructions.
Please take note of this correction to French edition of the rule book. We sincerely apologize for this printing omission.
With best regards,
SAIL CANADA RULES COMMITTEE Per: Rick Hatch, chair
Appendix V – Sound Signaling Starting System – Sail Canada RRS 2021-2024. Applicable as of January 1, 2021. Thank you to US Sailing for permission to adapt their Appendix U – Audible Signal Racing System.
Many thanks to the Sail Canada Rules Committee and Judges Sub-Committee, and our support partners for helping to provide us with the Racing Rules of Sailing in Canada.
