Part 6 ENTRY AND QUALIFICATION 78 78.1 COMPLIANCE WITH CLASS RULES; CERTIFICATES A boat’s owner and any other person in charge shall ensure that the boat is maintained to comply with her class rules and that her measurement or rating certificate, if any, remains valid.

When an equipment inspector or a measurer for an event decides that a boat or personal equipment does not comply with the class rules, he shall report the matter in writing to the race committee.
