405   1/350 other surface ships; commercial is explicitly called out

Once again the local committee has taken the NCC's category listing and modified it for their use, deleting pertinent information, such as 1/350 represents 1/450 to 1/101 scales

See the official category listing at https://ipmsusa.org/sites/default/files/2023_ipms_national_contest_categories.pdf

And, once again, the judges have to adjust on the fly ...  attempting to advise which category an entry should be placed in, moving an entry to another category, and, believe it or not, trying to serve the membership in the best way possible given the changing definitions and circumstances.  So, consider a little slack when definitions are ambiguous and categories are not perfectly clear.
