That seems to be the recommended size for my boat too

a fair number on the Sound even in the Eastern end.

For light air you should have a light 155, and maybe
keep a 140
multi-weight or foam luff on the furler. A 150 is giving
up enough area to
be noticable, plus is likely to be some sailmaker's
concept of a "heavy
#1" which is not a good light air sail. Better than a
140, prob'ly, unless
the 140 is specifically built for a wide range of
conditions.
