I was quite happy at 11.5 stone, but much happier at 12. If you are good enough and fit enough I would say about 11 stone min using a wavelength/sleeved C or Needlespar with a sail cut to suit.

Can i just point out that Jack Holt designed the Streaker when his Solo got too heavy to pull up the slipway.....Now what does this tell us about the Streaker?!?!

 

 

 

ps.  This may not be factually correct, but I never let the truth stand in the way of a good story!
I might be sailing it, but it's still sh**e!
