*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.’/
