If it's any consolation, I managed to clear E1 to E3 in spring with 3k of each resource with only two fleets available for expeditions.

You will easily recoup your sortie costs with two expedition fleets if you wait out the full duration of repairs. That being said, read the wiki before embarking on any map to make your attempts count.
