<p>Question 10:</p><p> The following question was previously posted on the class website and has been considered by the class measurer ahead of posting to CMS. </p> <p>What is the penalty for a crew being overweight? </p>
Disqualification.
Class rule C.2.2(b) states:
"The penalty for a crew which is greater than the maximum permissible shall be disqualification from all races on the day of the weighing.”
Accordingly, a boat with crew found to have broken class rule C.2.2 (table) (which specifies the maximum crew weight) based on random crew weighing after racing will be scored DSQ in all races from that day.
