I'm gonna have to agree with Jake. I do digital imaging for a living and can usually spot a fake. I think the angles are right, the port hull looks bigger but that's just the slight difference in perspective due to the beam width. And with a fake you can usually spot some aliasing around the placed image. Also I've done pretty much the same thing on a hobie 20 second day of steeplechase '03 with 18 - 20 knts of wind (I know 'cause when the crew and I walked in knee deep water back to the boat, the bows had never touched bottom but that starboard daggerboard sure had!) so If a 400 lb boat can do it so can a 165 lb'er.
