$60/boat or per angler?

I'm guessing $60 per boat. One of my buddies fishes WRBM and I think I remember him saying its per boat.

Can we just come day of and pay the money and fish it?

I thought I read they take registration the day of the tournament up until 30 minutes before launch....

Entry Fee is $60 per boat
Entries are accepted up to 30 Min berfore Launch
