Racing Rules of Sailing

Section B — Windsurfing Fleet Racing Rules

Windsurfing fleet races (including marathon races) shall be sailed under The Racing Rules of Sailing as changed by this appendix. The term ‘boat’ elsewhere in the rules means ‘board’ or ‘boat’ as appropriate. A marathon race is a race intended to last more than one hour.

Note: Links to windsurfing rules for some other formats or competitions can be found on the World Sailing website.

SERIES SCORES

Rule A2.1 is changed to:

Each board’s series score shall, subject to rule 90.3(b), be the total of her race scores excluding her

(a) worst score when from 5 to 11 races have been scored, or
(b) two worst scores when 12 or more races have been scored (see rule 90.3(a)).

However, the notice of race or sailing instructions may make a different arrangement. If a board has two or more equal worst scores, the score(s) for the race(s) sailed earliest in the series shall be excluded. The board with the lowest series score wins and others shall be ranked accordingly.
