I'm sure I'd do better doublehanded but I enjoy singlehanding and it's a lot less hassle than having to find someone light for the front of the boat!
Don't be afraid of a bit of crew weight. The Stealth should be able to take the same weight as the Spitfire. I normally sail with a lightweight girl crew. But I sailed a few events last season with a 70k to 75k crew. We won an event in force 4 to 5 winds, beating Hurricane 5.9 SX and other spinnaker Hurries, even on the water, and came 2nd in another event in light winds against Huricane 5.9 SX, Tigers and Spitfires.
I raced against a singlehanded Stealth a few years ago (

Enjoy your Stealth,
Dermot.
