In Topic: Rubber bands on spinnakers illegal under rule 55

03 May 2013 - 12:19 AM

The rule is in part 4 of the Racing Rules and it prohibits intentionally putting trash in the water.  So...

You can put trash in the water accidentally;

You have broken the rule even if you retrieve the trash; and

The rule does not apply when you are not racing (i.e.  before, between and after racing)

 

Seems a good idea that is not truly thought out.
