Paige Railey overdoes the kinetics in Miami

Paige Railey is one of the hot prospects for Gold in the Olympics next year, but only if she can curb her kinetic instincts. At the Miami Rolex Olympic Classes Regatta recently she fell foul of the three-strikes-and-you're-out rule in Racing Rule 42, which governs kinetic movements in sailing. She was thrown out of the regatta after the jury penalised her a third time. Railey is going to have to learn to sail within the limits of the rules (as perceived by the umpires). But at the same time this is a ridiculous and draconian measure for a relatively trivial infringement. By all means throw a competitor out of a race on the third infringement, but throw them out of the regatta? That's a little bit excessive, methinks...
