Hi Roger,

Thanks too much for your answer.

Im 80kg sailor. I forgot this data.

In my actual board, tack is possible but hard for its 57cm width, and yes, i put one foot just in front (very close) to tack. In this board i need to step over a centerline allways.

In the 120 ISonic tack would be like in a Shorter FW board? Jumping tack to tack, isnt it? but more close to centerline.

But if wind went down, how to uphaul if i cant step forward the mast?

What is the ideal sail size for 80kg/IS120?

I know my questions sounds atipic, but i need to know if i can survive and return if the wind fails when im more than one mile off shore ;-)

Another option is to take a 122 Carve, but maybe i will need to much consistent wind and loss planning in hulls.

Thanks,

Francisco
