I do agree with you boat arraingement but I think that it would be fun to put Sam in with Boromir...just for kicks.
I think though that many of our assumptions are based on the original timeline and in this case that wouldn't apply.

Would agree. One of the problems with 'if' scenarios is that at what point do you start a completely new story? I've continually in my own rewriting (mental) tried to 'get back' to the original storyline as much as possible.
Like if we couldn't brainstorm a way to get Theoden healed, then I could write, "Then Alatar and Pallando, on a trip back from the East, stop off at Meduseld and break Saruman's hold on Theoden, just to torque Curunir off. They then went back into the East..."
It's like cheating.
