While I concur that re-measuring a sail during an event, especially if it has already been certified by an accredited measurer or possesses an in-house certification, is unnecessary, I harbor reservations about approving this proposal making an initial certification mandatory for any race. I am afraid that not our sailmakers and fleets are ready to this new rule.

Appropriate amendment. This proposal specifies that the sail shall be certified by a measurer with a stamp or a signature and that event stamps are not a sail certification. Also allows WS In House Certification which is a great improvement and saves time at the events.

Un fabricante de velas o cualquier equipo tiene que certificar que el producto vendido cumple las reglas establecidas, es una garantía para el comprador

Y también una buena propaganda para el vendedor que ofrece una buena imagen de su producto.
Hace años que desde España estamos insistiendo en las velerías habituales para que las velas de snipe sean certificadas antes de proceder a su venta y ya se había conseguido incluso en la velería más significativa de Portugal,
La regla aprobada el pasado año en contra de la propuesta ahora y que esta pretende revertir es dar una paso atrás en nuestras mediciones.
