If a boat makes an error under rule 28.2 or breaks rule 31
at the finishing line and finishes without correcting her
error or taking a penalty, she must be scored points for the
place in which she finished. She can only be penalized for
breaking rule 28.2 or rule 31 if she is protested and the
protest committee decides that she broke the rule.
