Most high performance gliders have provision to store ballast in the tail.
This could increase the minimum cockpit weight. You will have to reduce the
water ballast accordingly to stay below gross weight.
I will assume you meant "maximum" cockpit weight.
My apologies. You had it right with "minimum" cockpit weight.
