Illegal traveler rope
The traveller rope has been covered in additional rope material and thus breaks the fundamental rule as well as rule 3(h)i.:
Rule 3(h)i.:
The traveller shall be a single line. It shall be rigged as a simple closed loop through the traveller eyes and the free end passing through the traveller cleat.
Fundamental rule:

No addition or alteration may be made to the hull form, construction, equipment, type of equipment, placing of equipment, fittings, type of fittings, placing of fittings, spars, sail and battens as supplied by the builder except when such an alteration or change is specifically authorised by Parts 2 or 3 of these Rules.
