The estimate is based on costs from previous years' regattas and incorporates any increases in gas prices that may affect the current season. For any regular regatta where overnight stay at the venue is necessary, the hotel room cost is in addition to the regatta fee.

These regattas are generally for select varsity crews and include the US Rowing Youth National Championships, Royal Canadian Henley Regatta in St. Catherine's Ontario, and Head of the Charles in Boston. An additional fee is charged for these regattas to cover coach per diems (hotel cost, meals and travel costs e.g. mileage or plane fare). These costs are divided among the rowers who attend the regatta.
