Benefits of thining gourds?

This is the first year that I have planted gourds and a I am growing 5 vines of speckled swan gourd. There are a large number of gourds developing on each of the vines and I am wondering if it is necessary or if there is any benefit to thinning them so that the remaining gourds grow larger, faster, thicker skinned, etc?
