What is the "discounted" entry fee if you bring your own boat? Did I miss it in the attached file?

I was gung ho for this event. The unfortunate $300 increase rained on that parade. And people say Triathlon is expensive.

tris are expensive and you don't get your own personal motorized escort for 12 hours. many of the captains earn their living as fishing guides. if they couldn't earn a days pay as a swimmers pilot, they would likely make other arrangements.

no doubt. I agree that they deserve every penny, just in the end it's a lot of money.
