During its construction, Stephen went to his long time friend Mickey  Munoz for his feedback and input for it to be an efficient surf boat (transportation to worldwide breaks, filming and support of such). Mickey Munoz, aka “Mongoose”.

Mickey pioneered surfing Waimea (thought to be unsurfable until then), and was the surfer who won the first professional surf contest!  It’s while dancing on his long board nose that he invented the “Quasimodo”.

Mickey was one of the 4 crew on Stephen’s  48ft tube sailing catamaran “Wind Warrior” along with Gino Morrelli when they were First to Finish on Transpac 1987.
