Question
I have sent two e-mail questions in the last weekand have received no answers. Are my questions not getting to the experts? Just wondering if this is a ligit web page? If you could at least respond to this e-mail so thaat I know they are going through. Thank you! Doug

Answer
Hi Doug,
I did answer both your questions but I do not see them in my "answered questions" box. This site may be having some problems.  What I said was that the 140 is too close in size to the 180 you have.  You would definitely not be able to control a 140 liter board in 20 mph wind.  The board has too much volume and you will be going so fast that the board will create too much drag and cause your sail to be pulled from your hands. The board will not stay in the water and will plane up so high the wind tends to blow the board around and you will lose control.  I have been there and done that.  You will have plenty of control with a 125 liter board and your 5.4 sail in 20mph and will be a lot more fun and much less dangerous to sail. I hope this gets through.
