Question 2
The situation is the same, except that at position 1 Y hails ‘No room’. B tacks
and protests. What should the call be?
Answer 2
In this case, it is clear to B that Y will not give room. B complies with rules 11
and 14 by tacking.
Y and B are overlapped when they are at the obstruction and rule 19.2(b)
requires Y to give B room between her and the obstruction. Penalize Y as she
fails to give room.
