| Class Capability |
Page Number: 43 |
| A boat may enter any class as long as it meets all the criteria for that class as set forth in this rule book and has the capability of running speeds and elapsed times representative of that class. The Sanction Supervisor shall have the final decision as to the capability of any boat. The purpose of this rule is to prevent a boat from entering a class for the sole purpose of increasing the purse in that class when the purse structure is based on the number of boats entered.
