In the one -up configuration (without jib) I'll opt for set-it and forget it like Phill put it. Just like the A-class. Handling is far more important with the genaker and all and lack of the venturi effect of the jib on the mainsail. Differences in weight in 1 -up crews is statistically the halve of 2-up crews. So I think that equal chance to win are pretty much covered bythe points named and no need exist for an extra equality rule apart from miinimum craft weight etc.

<br>2-up : alternative 6 , let everyone decide for himself
<br>
<br>2nd choice : alternative 2. Cheapest for me and simplest to administer. A weighing scale and a tape measure. I dislike weights and I think they are a hazard whe the become undone.
<br>
<br>3rd : alternative 3. I still hate weights, Comes closest to alternative 6 and 2
