Both really , the hundred ft maxi yachts are built to a “guideline “ rule and in a short distance race when geographic features are in play you can go inshore or further out but you have to make sure you can get back on the course line without sailing too many miles extra . They all have pretty sophisticated data plans for decision making now . Races like Hobart are a lot about not breaking stuff, to finish first , you first need to finish .
