thanks Steve
What i am trying to know if in marginal to light wind a bigger fin would do the trick to sail with a samller sail, because the gap between 7,2 and 8,5 means carrying two different masts, the weigth and handling is different and as i am trying to perfect jibes and waterstarts i need smaller sails, i can not change the conditions of the spot besides i am an old learner, 45y, and every bit of energy counts.
Thank again
Eli
