Quiz 39
Boats PI, on port tack, and SO, on starboard tack, are sailing dead downwind bow to bow approaching a leeward mark to be left to port with PI on the inside. When a length from the mark, PI bears off slightly so that she can round the mark leaving it to port without touching it. The booms of the two boats make contact with no damage or injury. SO hails, “Starboard!” and PI hails, “Room!” Both boats hail, “Protest!” SO rounds the mark behind PI. Neither boat takes a penalty. You are on the protest committee; how would you decide this?
