For boat starts, the call sign for Race Control will be the name of the race control vessel. 28 MEDIATION At the discretion of the Protest Committee, a mediation hearing may be heard prior to a protest hearing involving an alleged breach of a rule of RRS Part 2. After the written protest form is properly lodged, one representative from each boat shall meet with the mediator and no witnesses will be allowed. Protests not resolved by mediation will be heard by the Protest Committee. A boat that accepts fault at a mediation hearing will be penalized by having her race score increased by 25% of the difference between the boat s finishing score and the score for DSQ in her division or class, rounded up to the next whole number. All other boats scores will remain the same. Once accepted, this decision is not subject to reopening or appeal. This changes RRS Rules 63, 6. and appendix A. The mediator may be a member of any subsequent Protest Committee or may observe and give evidence to a Protest Committee.

Protests will be heard in approximately the order of receipt at a time to be advised. Breaches of SI clauses, 2, 8, 23, 25 and 27 will not be grounds for protest by a boat. This changes rule 60.(a). Penalties for these breaches may be less than disqualification if the protest committee so decides. 3 DISCLAIMER All those taking part in races conducted by Sandringham Yacht Club Inc. do so at their own risk and responsibility. Sandringham Yacht Club, its staff, officers and volunteers accept no responsibility whatsoever for the seaworthiness of boats whose entries are accepted or the sufficiency or adequacy of its equipment.
