I'd beg to differ about rule 18, particularly 18.2c... there is still a lot of work to be done. The other day I set (what I thought was a great mark trap), only to have the boat clear astern dive inside, ricochette of me (giving me a penalty, but not getting one himself) and then sail off into the distance...
However, I do agree that the judges do seem to be getting (a bit) better.
In theory there is no difference between theory and practice, but in practice there is.
