Best Answer

Just the Racing Rules of Sailing (RRS),

In total, about 90 rules, but not many people actually know them all, about 12 govern what boats do when they meet on the race course, and the race committee can change them for the event as necessary.

The rules are no different for the Olympics as they are for normal club racing, just enforced more!
