Ok, I've not been a regular on this F20 forum, but I'll throw in an idea on the crew weight issue anyway. Set the minimum weight a little high, and allow for two or three person crews. Bruisers can be two handed and make weight, lightweights can have enough weight, and extra strength through extra bodies. Maybe you'll see participation like a seasoned adult with two youth crew, or other permutations. In any case you may have overall increased participation people-wise in the sport. Might make it more fun to watch, too.<br><br>Keith, Annapolis
