*Rules and Regulations 2017:*The Rules remain largely unchanged from 
2016 with the exception of the removal of any time bonus for an 
obstructed crew. This is in accordance with British Rowing Rule 8.6.

8 -6 Penalties at Processional Races. The following penalties are 
available for processional events (head races, time-trials, etc.):• Rule 
8-5 penalties• an additional time penalty - to be added to the offending 
crews time There can be no reduction of time for a crew that is offended 
against.

This will be dealt with by increasing the flexibility in the start 
order, see Rule 7c:

‘That Jesus College Boat Club shall determine the order of the start, 
based upon the finishing order of the previous year’s races, followed by 
new entrants alphabetically and by status.In the interests of safety and 
fairness (Rule 13.a), if a crew is considered to be substantially slower 
than the crew achieving the previous year’s finishing position, they may 
be started with the new entrants, upon application to the Fairbairns 
Secretary.If /a boat club/ deems one of its//crew/s/ to be significantly 
faster than the crew in front, /and can provide evidence to that effect 
(e.g. times from other races)/, the start order may be changed or the 
time gap between the two crews may be increased /at the discretion of 
the Fairbairns Secretary/./Requests for a change in start order or an 
increased time gap should be submitted to the Fairbairns Secretary not 
later than seven (7) days before the start of the races.’/
