To institute claiming you would need to get a price that makes sense and then add a Administration fee for the sanction body to cover the additional procedures/cost.

I think we should have video cameras in the boats so we can see who drives and throttles and who just sits there and pays the bills.

"Extras" has a great idea.

The Doc.s Fountain was wider, taller and heavier than any boat in the fleet. However, the boat would put 10-20 seconds on the rest of the class- In the first lap! Then they would simply maintain that lead the rest of the race. The usual response of a "better throttleman" doesn't hold water. When the Fountain was sold, it curiously ran a speed more realistic of the boat. Enter the new Outerlimits. A beautiful boat by all respects, but also shows the same "magic speed" all while dragging both trim tabs like flaps on a 767 on final approach.
The Doctor and his driver/throttleman made their own bed. Let them go cry in their own pillows.
