Part 6ENTRY AND QUALIFICATION
75ENTERING AN EVENT
To enter an event, a boat shall comply with the requirements of the organizing authority of the event. She shall be entered by
  1. a member of a club or other organization affiliated to an World Sailing member national authority,
  2. such a club or organization, or
  3. a member of a World Sailing member national authority.
76EXCLUSION OF BOATS OR COMPETITORS
76.1
The organizing authority or the race committee may reject or cancel the entry of a boat or exclude a competitor, provided
  1. it does so before the start of the first race after receipt of the entry for the boat or the competitor, and
  2. it states a proper reason for doing so.
The reason shall be provided promptly in writing if requested by the boat or competitor.
 
 
76.2
However, the organizing authority or the race committee shall not reject or cancel the entry of a boat or exclude a competitor
  1. because of advertising if the boat or competitor complies with the World Sailing Advertising Code, or
  2. at world and continental championships if the entry is within stated quotas and the approval of the relevant World Sailing Class Association (or the Offshore Racing Congress) or World Sailing has not been obtained.
76.3
Redress may be requested by a boat or competitor that considers that the rejection or exclusion is improper or that it broke rule 76.2
77IDENTIFICATION ON SAILS
A boat shall comply with the requirements of Appendix G governing class insignia, national letters and numbers on sails. 
 
78COMPLIANCE WITH CLASS RULES ; CERTIFICATES
78.1
While a boat is racing, her owner and any other person in charge shall ensure that the boat is maintained to comply with her class rules and that her measurement or rating certificate, if any, remains valid. In addition, the boat shall also comply at other times specified in the class rules, the notice of race or the sailing instructions. When a rule provides that the penalty for a breach of a class rule may be less than disqualification, the same penalty will apply to a breach of this rule.   
78.2
When a rule requires a valid certificate to be produced or its existence verified before a boat races, and this cannot be done, the boat may race provided that the appropriate committee receives a statement signed by the person in charge that a valid certificate exists. The boat shall produce the certificate or arrange for its existence to be verified by the appropriate committee before the start of the last day of the event, or of the first series, whichever is earlier. The penalty for breaking this rule is disqualification without a hearing from all races of the event.
79CATERGORIZATION
If the notice of race or class rules state that some or all competitors must satisfy categorization requirements, the categorization shall be carried out as described in the World Sailing Sailor Categorization Code.
80RESCHEDULED EVENT
When an event is rescheduled to dates different from the dates stated in the notice of race, all boats entered shall be notified. The race committee may accept new entries that meet all the entry requirements except the original deadline for entries.
