I guess I wasn't clear: actually, they have the competitor stand on the
scale twice, once while holding the boat, once without, and then take
the difference. It's the easiest way to weigh the boat.

I don't think there's an all-up minimum weight, including crew.


Well, the rules on the class web site have what seems to be
an all-up minimum.

Rules (... snip ...)

4. Weight correction. Hull weight shall be a minimum of 34
lbs. including flotation but without rudder, daggerboard,
spars and sail. Under-weight hulls must be reconstructed to
conform. The adding of non-buoyant materials to increase
hull weight is prohibited.

Minimum combined weight of hull and crew in sailing clothing
shall be 214 lbs. Weight correction to bring crew-hull to
proper weight shall be made by carryig water-filled plastic
ballast bottles (8 1/2 lbs. per gallon) in the boat, up to a
maximum of 4 gallons. Ballast bottles may not be moved while
racing.
