Thanks for the advice guys. I'll be getting my feet wet at more intermediate locales like Larkspur and Berkeley to work on skills and as the ability increases adjust accordingly.

If this is the case(especially Larkspur) you want to cheat bigger...4.5, 5.0, 5.5. the 90, 115 combo mentioned above is perfect.

As said, 150'lber here, same with g/f.
She brings 4 boards, and doesn't have a high wind board.
I bring 3, use 2 of her bigger boards, so carry 76 liters to 100 liters for myself.

I think that's what I'll probably do. Demo some boards at the start of the season and decide on a specific model. I'll start with the 115L and get a 90L B&J once I'm confident with more advanced skills.

Technically, Vince lives at PSQEast, which is much more of a serious site, triple bigger wind swells, and almost nobody else to sail with......
