Honestly, for a MAJOR regatta (NA's, midwinters, districts), I don't think 30-40 per day of sailing is out of the question as they have to feed you, provide for a RC which is sometimes a paid position, and buy trophies and give aways, and a lot of times there is live entertainment.
We have had local regattas (not sunfish) with all donated time, some donated food, and effort with only some token trophies to buy for $10 or $20 a head.

BTW nobody can see how you vote. This is important stuff for the future of the class.
