    I think that on having now read more on the subject I'm inclining to the simple rule that whilst tacking, the red card means that all hands are engaged in ship handling and no other task may be undertaken.

    In agreement there Rob. Seems the simplest way to deal with it. I'm anything for sticking to KISS (the principle not the group).

    I would agree, however, I would say for an even simpler option, maybe say if the wind is blowing from the red direction, no shooting is allowed.

    This would allow ordering as normal, but would punish players who get into irons just to get a good firing angle!
