Hand Holding Boat Hook as Whisker Pole Legal?

Point is, there's no point in protesting or requesting redress on these grounds... This is best served by a conversation with race management and the general membership... This isn't quite isolated either... Endemic problem with race committee populated often by those who don't care about racing... This is just the worst I've seen yet... And I'm more disgusted because the one responsible crews in the one design races...

Sure, whatever it takes to get it resolved. What I don't understand is how a 'race committee populated often by those who don't care about racing' happens. Why are they there, and who voted them in?

Ah... Maybe this is more unique than I thought... Part of membership obligations is to serve one day a year as rc.
