Not sure how many at the time, but in talking with George the other day he mentioned he thought it would fill quickly by the amount he had recieved the prior week as far as sign ups.
I don't remember the payout exactly, but I think it was 16,000 for first, third place was 6400, and it paid down to 15th or 16th. We won the $250 big fish pot for day 2 and $250 in the option pot.
The payouts will be even bigger next year when the tournament hits 100 boats.
