I thought Stingo sailed a catamaran? He told me the poor performance and strong possibility of a catamaran inverting in anything over a F2 (any catamaran) were secondary considerations to it's ability to provide the required buoyancy for his body mass/weight. If this is really a picture of Stingo and it certainly appears to look genuine enough, he's certainly slimmed down and is obviously dying to switch to a monohull again and become a proper sailor.
