I'm undecided which way to go with these 2 boards. I am 188/85kg and will use 6.7/5.8 race sails. I sail mainly flat water with some lake sailing thrown in. Wind conditions will mainly be 15-25, with the odd 20-30 days as well. I like to do GPS, slalom and general cruising.

I have had the opportunity to try the Isonic 86 found the acceleration/gybing outstanding. However I also sailed the ST 93 at the same time, the difference in speed being hard to feel. The wind was only gusting to about 18/20.

In the wind range 15-30, what are the pro's and cons for the Isonic 86 vs the Futura 93.

Cheers
