Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28.

"My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton.

My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell.

So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!!

Papillon (most of the time)"

I'm not necessarily advocating it, but you could imagine a weight limit system where the weight of driver was taken into account. Something like:

total weight limit = 880 + 0.4 * ( driver_weight - 160 )

- 120 lb driver - weight limit: 866lbs (746 for crew)
- 160 lb driver - weight limit: 880lbs (720 for crew)
- 220 lb driver - weight limit: 904lbs (685 for vrew)
- 260 lb driver - weight limit: 920lbs (660 for crew)

I don't know what the right values in the forumula would be be to make things even ...
