This is the best basic rules video I could find on KZfaq. It is clear, quick, and well mic'd. So many have poor audio quality and are really long. Thank you.

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.

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.

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

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).
