New Match Racing Rapid Response Calls 2018-001 and 2018-002
Unlike the other two calls, 2018-001 does not conclude that Blue's course was affected by Yellow's action.
In fact it says Blue held her course.
Per the drawing, Blue's course would have been the same, had Yellow tacked promptly.
Thus Yellow "shall not be penalized for breaking" 18.3. [C2.9]
