Aren't you about 98 lbs, Pierre? 98 lbs on a 9' epoxy board is
equivalant to me on an Equipe!
If you are planning on 5.5 then I think I need a 7.5 at 230 lbs since my
largest board barely floats me. PLEASE give wt if you are saying sail
size......20-30 is 5.5 for me and I haven't seen that sort of wind in
some time...8-(
PS I have some large, race sails for sale....

Prices just lowered:
5.6 $175 Condition - Great
6.2 $150 Condition - Good. Some wear
6.9 $200: Condition - Great! (seldom used)
Just used Sunday and it is in great shape
Kirk (ordering a new 7.5 soon) out
