If you look in the pics above, all 4 pots were different. I just filled them a little more than 2/3 the way full, and salted to taste. We did about 12 lobsters in each pot per boil. Worked out great

I have already emailed the guy...just gotta pick a day when I try this out as well.

If I got them in on a Friday...how can I keep them alive until Saturday? Fridge?

I'm quite late to this party, but here's some info for future boils:
quote:

Taking into account the total amount of water in the 3/4 filled pot you end up with the complete formula of (total # of quarts divided by 1.5 quarts equal the total amount of pounds of lobster to cook at one time).
A standard twenty quart pot filled to 15 quarts will hold ten pounds of lobsters. Broken down to size it will hold 8 Chicken lobster, 6 to 7 one and a half pounders, 4 to 5 2.25 lb lobsters. Now that you have your total number of lobsters you can cook at one time; you need to know the cooking time. The rule of thumb is 8 minutes per pound of lobster. That is a two pound lobster takes 16 minutes to cook.
