Thanks greg. I don't know yet if I'll have quite a bit of helm with him on board as he hasn't been on the boat yet. My 2 regular guys that crew with me go about 190 & 210 respectively. So normally in a decent breeze I have about 375-400 on the wire.

I didn't think to verify the sticker with the weight on there, I'll check that out carefully first.
I'm a bit leery putting both my brother and I on the wire, so I'm leaning towards just putting him out there and I'll ride the hull.

[Edit]
If all wires are new and the sticker is tight, what is the expected weight limit now?

What's the most weight you have put on the wire of a boat this size?
