Marshals working to keep the course safe during the IOMTT

Marshals for the TT and Manx Grand Prix will still be able to get discount on their transport to and from the Island.
The Steam Packet Company says it will be offering reduced fares for marshals who sign on for both events.
Marshals based on the Island will also be given discount when heading to shows to promote and recruit for the Isle of Man TT Marshals' Association.
Without volunteer marshals neither the TT nor the Manx Grand Prix would be able to go ahead.

It would be handy if a voucher was given, which could be set against the following year's TT ticket, rather than just the MGP ferry crossing. My MGP crossing varies between £105-£120 for bike and myself, saving me a maximum of £60, whereas I could claim £100 against a TT crossing. I know this initiative was offered originally to boost the number of marshals at the MGP, and I'm not ungrateful for the help, but the TT fare is the one I could do with some help with. Maybe a similar offer could also be made for marshals covering the S100 and MGP only, as they must feel left out.
