Answer 4
The umpires should judge whether the penalty was completed before crossing
the finishing line and, if not, they should report this to the race committee.
If the boat fails to finish in accordance with the definition, she should be scored
DNF (see rule A5).
A boat completes a penalty when, if she gybes first, she reaches a close-hauled
course after tacking, or, if she tacks first, her mainsail fills on the new side after
gybing.
