As far as I'm concerned the current system serves its purpose allowing a mixed bag of boats to sail together for Wednesday night beer can and weekend fleet races and this is where the "more is better" rule applies. But once you get past the Wednesday night beer can race or weekend fleet race, that's where the "more is better" ends for me.

Putting everyone on the same line for a two day event then pretending that the handicap system makes everything square is not good for the sport in my opinion. Yes I know the area eliminations are run using this format but that is done out of necessity only and the DPN rules are pretty tight (no modifiers).
