Futura 122 with 8.5m sail?

I see on this site that the Futura 122 will take a 9m sail. But in practice, on fresh water, will it take an 8.5 V8 comfortably?

The Ultralight straps, when wet, seem to grip on to the latex of my Atan boots they may be OK with conventional neoprene boots. I have realised though that if you don't use the screw covers on the...

Foot straps on Futura, bad design?

Just bought a 133 Futura and can't sail it because of the foot straps. Where I sail the water is 6 degrees and I need to wear winter boots but the footstraps won't go big enough to allow for them. I...
