Maris Stella Yacht Club and Crabbing Society
Rule 47.2: "No person on board shall intentionally leave, except when ill or injured, or to help a person or vessel in danger, or to swim [italics mine]. A person leaving the boat by accident or to swim [italics still mine] shall be back on board before the boat continues in the race."
Uh... Skip?..... I know this race is close, dude, but I'm kinda really workin' up a sweat, so I'm gonna take a little dip, ok? You know, cause, like, it's in the rules.....

I know it's the lawyer that still buried deep within me, but . . . is there a definitions section at the beginning of the rules? Is the term "to swim" a defined term?
Yes, esquire, there is a definitions section, but "swim" does not have an entry in it. Apparently this rule refers to swimming in its ordinary sense.
