AMENDMENTS TO THE 2009-2012 RACING RULES OF SAILING

November 30, 2009

The International Sailing Federation (ISAF) announced that, as a result of
actions taken by the ISAF Racing Rules Committee and the ISAF Council during
the ISAF Annual Conference, several changes in The Racing Rules of Sailing for
2009-2012 will take effect on 1 January 2010. The changes apply to:

- Rule 18.2(c) will be changed due to an unintended consequence of the current
wording of this rule.

- The definition Obstruction will be changed so that a boat racing will no
longer be an obstruction to other boats that are required to give her room or
mark-room.

- Additions will be made to the definition Party to correct unintended
omissions.

- A new rule, rule C2.12, will be added to the Match Racing Rules.

After the 2009 rulebook was printed, ISAF revised its Advertising Code and, in
so doing, eliminated all references to Category A advertising. References to
the Advertising Code in Appendices J, K and L will be changed to make them
consistent with the revised Code. –
