After being skunked wed. at coyote point, I have decided it is time
to buy a big sail. By big, I mean something around 6.0. (I already
have a 5.3) My question is, given I weight 190lbs, and that my big
board is 125l. What should I get?

All of my current sails are wave sails. I assume that it probably does
not make much sense to get a wave sail this big? What size would you
recommend. Can anyone recommend a brand/model? (All of my current sails
are waddel)
        
Most importantly, anyone know where I can a sail at a good price this
time of year?
