2 > Offshore Penalty Buoy clarification.

T Emerson raised the question whether further clarification of penalty buoy use is required, this was initiated by a series of questions he got from W Thompson. After a brief discussion the meeting concluded that W Thompson needs to put his specific questions in writing to the committee so they can be considered and answered as appropriate, committee will not spend time trying to guess what the questions might be.
