How powered up is the sail? I did a comparison between my F-Type 148 and the iSonic 155. I found them to be similar. But I would say the F-Type was a little friendlier and slower. Basically, I found I had to focus more on making the iS155 perform compared to the FT148... not much but a little.

With my iSonic 105, I found it very easy to sail when fully powered up, but when not, you have to work at it a lot. I wouldn't have expected this to be the same for the larger iSonics. I didn't notice enough difference for me to say this is the case.

Sorry, that I can't confirm what you are describing. Hopefully someone else will have a better answer/explanation.
