A Gift for Christmas

For those of you who celebrate Christmas, RacingRulesOfSailing.org has a gift for you [and for those you who don't, we still have a gift for you]. We have added the World Sailing Judges Manual to the site. This has been needed for a while, but thanks to Angelo Guarino, we now have that available. It is on the RRS menu. Our members also have access to the links between the manual and the rules, cases and regulations. This will allow you to immediately find the relevant portion of the manual from the rules, just like we've done with cases and Q&As. This was no small endeavor as you can imagine, but the Patrons of RacingRulesOfSailing.org give us the ability make this kind of resource available to everyone. Please become a Patron and help support our efforts. And Merry Christmas to all our members.

That’s a kind mention Paul, but I only lent a hand. You know what they say. .... it takes a village to raise a racing-forum. :-)
What you’ve built here is really, really special and so very helpful.

Quick additional Notes about the newly uploaded WS-IJM pages:
Obviously this is newly entered, so please send any suggested corrections to corrections@RacingRulesOfSailing.org. The data-entry and linking was fast-n-furious, so there are bound to be some errors.
I think we got all the internal rule/case links WITHIN the WS-IJM pages, but it will take some time to make the links FROM the RRS/Case pages TO the WS-IJM pages, but they will start showing up here shortly.
For a peak at what that will look like, check out Conflict of Interest (you will need to be signed-in to see what I'm referring to).

Unlike the Case Book and Appeals, the WSJM is not indexed by Rule. Therefore, it would be great if you help us make some of these links.
If you are looking into a rule and then find a reference in the WSJM section that helped you out, please take a moment to send the suggested linked sections to corrections@racingrulesofsailing.org.
A quick sentence including the RRS # and the WSJM # will do.
