I'd say the default answer is a 135 but for Chesapeake Bay or LI Sound in summer cruising, a 150. For San Francisco Bay, 115 or 120... For offshore cruising, I'd lean towards 135 but without knowing more about your boat or plans, nobody can offer much advice Evan Gatehouse I'm considering a 130, and I sail in the SF bay. That's what Quantum recommended... they can make one that's got the luff foam so the shape is good when it's reefed. Most of the time, of course, it would down to 90%. :-) -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
