The 1.3 factor , etc can be easily recalculated each year and it will become more and more stable as the calculation involves multiple years of final data. Last year it was 1 to 1 . That was too much advantage for boats. This year its 1.3 , that , some say , is too much advantage for shore , we will see when this years results are final. Next year they can recalculate the multiplier using 2 years of data . Its really simple to continuously update the multiplier using a running avergae , year to year , with the multiplier equalizing the first place or first five places between mostly shore teams and mostly boat teams.

Number of members being restricted is against the whole point of the tourney. The tourney exists so people can participate , not so that some club can win a trophy! I am signed up on the S_B team this year but until my hip is operated on , I won't get a fish. I knew this before I signed up . I signed up so I can go to the party at the end with my firends. Why should that be limited? In fact I think there should be a trophy for the team that has the most number of paid entries.
