addendum
the reason i don't like to use a bigger sail is that a 7.4 gets me going nicely in 8-14 and i'll go to another board/sail if it's blowing harder.
and if i drop the 7.4 during a gybe, and the wind picks up, it's real hard to uphaul if waterstarting isn't working.
so a 8.5 or 9.5 would be quite a handful for me.
