• Correction to the 2013 OCSA General Sailing instructions in the OCSA 2013 Race book on page 62 # 15.5 The 4th sentence should read: “US Sailing’s prescriptions to RRS 60 & 63.2 shall not apply unless the Protest Committee adjourns a hearing and decides to apply those prescriptions. 15.5) The schedule of protest and/or request for redress hearings will be available via the Official Notice Board shortly after the protest time limit, together with a document file for each protest and/or request for redress as filed. These postings will constitute notice given and the protest or redress information as required by RRS 63.2 and will constitute the notice requirement under RRS 61.1(b). Hearings will proceed whether or not all boats are represented. US Sailing’s prescriptions to RRS 60 & 63.2 shall not apply unless the Protest Committee adjourns a hearing and decides to apply those prescriptions. Protesting parties may be offered the opportunity to participate in voluntary protest mediation.
