So there are boats approaching the windward mark from both port and starboard, a port tack boat (Boat A) lee-bow's a starboard tack boat with about 2 boat lengths to the mark (Boat B), Boat A completes the tack and Boat B is not forced to alter course, Boat A can make the mark without luffing head to wind on starboard tack only if the now windward starboard tack gives him room to do so, Boat B does not give room and makes contact with Boat A causing him to hit the mark.
This seems to happen alot, and it happens fast on the laser, what is the ruling on this?
