Every four years, the International Sailing Federation (ISAF) updates the Racing Rules of Sailing. Currently we are racing under the 2013-16 rules, but after 1st January 2017 we will be racing under the 2017-20 rules.
You can download a pdf file of the RRS 2017-20 at http://www.sailing.org/ documents/racingrules
Why not take a look and make sure that you are familiar with the rules?
