Reply To: Plastic spacer on chainplates

First of all, which rule obliges a boat to protest in this case? Second, the central point is the class rules should be modified to accommodate the way most people sail these boats. These spacers are being used by many boats around the world. It would be a simple matter to modify the class rules to permit these spacers, which is necessary due to the “closed” nature of the class rules.
