Try and send a PM to Stingo, who took a 390 across the atlantic. Hopefully he'll spot your post anyway.
In the meantime take a look at his site www.stingo.co.uk

Without wanting to worry you, the 390 was on my list of possibles a few years back, but after looking at the stability curves and reading the report of one in Biscay which was knocked down and staid inverted I was kind of put off. In the end we suffered a knock down in Biscay ourselves but it was November so we were maybe asking for trouble.
There are many that have crossed oceans but the ability to roll back up in a knock down is kind of useful I felt.
Search for stabilty curve 390 and you should come up with some details.
This was only one incident but it did make me think twice. Case 4 page 14.
