my dealer always told me: beginner: your weight + 40 and it floats, every liter extra is just extra balance and even +40 is a looot of balance. Intermediate: +25-30, advanced: whatever you want. I agree with steveC, take a 101 because the 111 and 122 are going to be doors for you. And considering your wieght and where you surf, you may want to be looking for a board with a sailrange between 3.5 and 5.5 m??, 6m?? at most.
