D2.1

When Rule D2 Applies; Redress and Breakdowns

(a) Rule D2 applies to umpired races. Races to be umpired shall be identified in the notice of race or sailing instructions or by the display of flag J no later than the warning signal.
(b) A boat that protests under a rule listed in rule D2.2 or D2.3 for an incident while racing shall hail ‘Protest’ and display a red flag and is not entitled to a hearing. This changes rules 60.2(a)(1) and 63.2(a).
(c) A boat requesting redress for an incident in the racing area, or requesting a breakdown score change under rule D5.2, shall conspicuously display a red flag at the first reasonable opportunity after the incident or breakdown. She shall display the red flag until it is acknowledged by the race committee or an umpire.
