For the FOs considering the £3k.
What are the conditions of your deal? Where are the details before you all vote 'yes'?
Is it payable to current SFOs, or only new SFOs? When does it come into force?
Once you pass a PCA, how long is it valid for? Does your £3k depend on the PCA remaining valid?
Once you eventually make it to the LHS, does the deal for skippers look half as good as it does for SFOs?
Say 'yes' now, and you shaft yourself 12-18 months down the line.
