I set up a spreadsheat to get an idea of what I spend a season on going to regatta's. This is based on next year, the Hobie Mega is way far away.

Total mileage- 8324 miles, at $2.68 (the price today) for a gallon for diesel and getting 15mpg that's $1487.22

Camping for 27 nights, Roughly $15 a night- $405

Meals- 27 days worth at $20 per day - $540

Entrance fees- Figuring $45 for normal events, $400 for a NAC - $895

Not figuring wear and tear/maintenance on my vehicle, or the boat. And assuming I don't break anything, (yeah right), or get a flat tire I'll spend $3,329.90

HOLY CRAP! I should be chasing some sponsorship dollars.
