This is the best basic rules video I could find on RUclips. It is clear, quick, and well mic'd. So many have poor audio quality and are really long. Thank you.
This is so useful as someone who watches sailing but doesn't sail - just enough information to know what I'm looking at and not so much information that I zone out and don't care. Recommended for partners, family members and friends, for definite.
Thank you for the video. The youtube algorithm recently started showing me SailGP videos, which I find very fascinating. However, I found it difficult to find and comprehend the rules for the right of way. This is a clear and quick video and explains all the basic rules.
Golden rule (never collide), (technically buoy room), then port/starboard, windward/leeward, overtaking. Start rule is basically p/s & w/l (so don't push in). Buoy room rules only apply when the boats are overlapping within a few boat lengths of the mark (can't remeber if two or three), then they take precedence (except for the golden rule).
Your imaginary staring line is not in the correct spot. It should be a line from the course sdie of the pin end buoy, not from the middle of that buoy.
You are saying "you" wrong. :-) Your point about 'right of way' boat being incorrect is wrong as well. While there is no defined right of way in the ColRegs, the International Racing Rules actually use the term "right of way' (Part 2, Section A - "A boat has right of way over another boat when the other boat is required to keep clear of her." Since the video is about Racing Rules of Sailing, your point is offside. This is very likely the source of the common misconception that one boat has "right of way' over another in the ColRegs. SOME races specifically exclude Section A and of course a boat racing under the rules of racing meeting a boat that is not, has to comply with the ColRegs but the rules of racing are what they are. His video was correct (and very helpful).

Down wind to up wind would be a good inclusion
What's the order of presidence of the rules?
Golden rule (never collide), (technically buoy room), then port/starboard, windward/leeward, overtaking.

@@KrimsonGuard thank you! I'm slowly internalizing all of them

Tou are saying 'right of way'. That term is incorrect.
