I haven't suggested any rules changes. Whatever conversations I've had within my class are private.
"If I am leeward boat (on the same tack) and you plan to tack accross my bow, you'd better make sure you can make it without fouling me. " Or what?
Guess I assumed that was the "remedy" you suggested...no wait, I didn't assume, you really DID suggest it. Maybe you've come up with something else since then that no one outside the class is privy to. As for the "or what?" Either I'll avoid you and protest if I'm on starboard, avoid you and sail on if I'm on port, or I won't be able to avoid you, there will be a collision, followed by a protest. Either way, foul me and I'll see you in the room. Don't take it personally Pete, just trying to clarify rights and responsiblities. I didn't actually mean "you and me."
