1 QUESTIONS RECEIVED FROM COMPETITORS Notice to Competitors No.6 Q1. The contractual agreement between the Marina and the diving company is clear that cleaning work on hulls is forbidden without special authorisation.

I then presume the Marina has the right to give the authorisation? A1 NO. The sailing instruction is independent of any external authorization or agreement between third parties. Q2.

What are the geographic limits of SI 18.3 for the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup or SI 17.3 for the Rolex Maxi 72 World Championship? A3.
