Summary of significant changes in the Common Sailing Instructions from 2013:
- Class rules and boat standards are explicitly mentioned.
- Instr. 3.2 eliminated. Thus, changes to the sailing instructions must be in writing and properly posted. No oral changes are allowed, on or off the water.
- Minor change to phrf splits: Class 1: <121; Class 2:121-160; Class 3: >160.
- Instr 14.1 reworded to make clear that when a boat elects to take a penalty for a violation of a rule of part 2, the penalty will be a scoring penalty. Turns are not an acceptable option. A one-turn penalty continues to apply for a violation of rule 31.
- Time limits have been reduced: They are now 2 hours for the first finisher, and 45 minutes after the first finisher for others.
- Instr. 17 now states more clearly how to score DNC for the series: it is one more than the number of boats that have registered for at least one of the season regattas.
