As for offering cash prizes to new sailors winning events - I don't think it likely that new sailors will be winning events (too many grizzeled veterans in most fleets), plus I'm not sure it would provide a big incentive to get people into racing.

Something that just popped into my head.

What about offering something to the most IMPROVED racer or the person that makes an effort but gets dead last?

I shoot sporting clays and one way that we have done prizes before was offer lessons to the person who has the lowest score. Of course, they have to show effort, not just goose eggs.
