• RRS 70.3(b) - Denial of right to appeal (conditional)
  The Irish Sailing prescriptions state:
  Denial of right of appeal under RRS 70.3(b) and (c) is subject to prior approval by Irish Sailing. Irish Sailing will not
  consider the denial of the right of appeal under 70.3(b) and (c) unless the protest committee has a minimum of
  three members, of which the majority shall be National or International Judges or Umpires as appropriate.
  
  As part of the island is still (for the moment) governed by a foreign jurisdiction and its MNA  the requirement of 70.3(c) are rarely met!

• Mark-Room and Room to Pass an Obstruction who wins.
  See John's response.   For the sake of simplicity, if we ask for an interpretation, the testimony of both competitors is that was only room for one boat to pass safely between the mark and the obstruction.
  
  Further. What happens if there are three boats overlapped? I was recently on a one-design start line with 103 boats.  I wish I could tell you that I had a fantastic first leg and arrived at the top mark in the top 3 boats with no overlap. Alas by the time I got there, so did a lot of other boats.  Fortunately, no obstruction. But I confess that Mark's Xmas puzzler was going through my head as I rounded 3 abreast.
  
  Oh, and I had a much better downwind leg. Thanks for asking.

• RRS Power Point Presentation
  Hi John
  Can you share again the links of Race Managment documents. I am planning a training session on this.

• To be a MARK or not to be
  I totaly agree with Mark Townsend’s answer. Even nothing is said about the start process in your case, it seems you are racing and RRS 31 applies and the first marks you shall not touch are the marks of the starting line.

• Rule 18.2(d)
  My summary of this thread is that 18.2(d) is similar to 18.2(e) in that it simply says you can't get a last-second overlap and expect room.
