Interesting thread, but you lost me here and I'm not boat race savvy. Could you share a (rough/draft) example of what this idea in practice?
@CJHandmer is the one who's boat race savvy! I'm only vaguely familiar. Maybe he'd share some specific examples

Here's an article I found: http://www.yachtingworld.com/features/5-tips-when-and-how-to-take-a-penalty-63119 …. TLDR: Sailing against the wind is hard. Penalties are a 360 degree turn, costing time.

Cool, thanks. How might rules like that apply to "drones", though? If someone flies over 400ft, someone makes them land and take off again??

decelerating from forward flight and hovering/loitering are probably sufficiently energetically taxing as penalties.
