That idea could have merit
only downside I could see is when it blows hard and you have to be out in the weather to provide the righting moment. But only if you want to stay fast.
You would only have a very small deck area as well good/bad?

2.5m max towing width and having either a fold-out or slide out ww
accommodation pod- a bit like a wing on a skiff. It would be
collapsed and possibly slightly incline while sailing and popped up
and level for sleeping. This would keep some of the righting moment
and allow fixed hull and crossbeam connections as well as reducing
racking forces between the hulls. For racing it could be replaced by
a lightweight rediculously wide wing. Fo a quiet fish it could be
left off altogether. Can any one think of any reason not to go down
this track?
