There is a lot of dollars and sense... i understand not everyone can sail every single day with 6 guys at 125 or 140 bucks a head, but if you can sail with 6 guys at 100 why not charge "industry" standard and make some more money for the days you sail or the days you have to sail light?
You can say that its better not to sail with 3 at $125 but I'm pretty sure next time those same guys want to book, they're going to book with someone there is a better chance of sailing with... I bet even sailing with 2, $250 will cover most if not all your costs to keep customers happy. Once again, difference business sense, each to their own...
And you're crazy with your "industry" standard thought process. The guy that mentioned that Groupon thing is getting warmer. You have to give people an incentive to go on your boat, let it be free food, longer hours or cheaper rates, etc. That Groupon thing wasn't all about money, that was cheap advertising!!
