Sorry, I misphrased the end of my post -- I did not mean "do this," as far as using weight modifications. I meant "do this" in terms of having class-designated minimum weights.

Mike, do you know how many other classes have minimum crew weights besides the Performance, Hobie and Mystere? In fact, I do not think the Hobie Wave has a minimum crew weight, does it?

And if you have a mixed Portsmouth fleet including some boats that have minimum class crew weights and some that do not, how could you use the weight modification factor? Actually, I thought the weight modification factor was meant to be used primarily in one-design classes to help equalize the boats.



And, by the way, most of the Performance Catamarans are sold in Europe, and Jack Young once told me that over there they do not have a minimum crew weight assigned for the Inters and Nacras -- the factory is only required to designate a "maximum load-carrying capacity."
