I weigh 235# and have used a 9.5 on my Excite 165l many times. It sails well, and I usually water start it unless the wind is too low. It will also take a 10.4. |

Great! I sent an email to Nancy also.
I did get one session in this winter by carrying my gear from the first boat launch area through the old parking lot at the end of the levee.

There were several of us out at Sherman in the flood in the afternoon. It was about 5.3-5.6 for normal weight guys, up and down, but usually planning.
A good session. |

If you can get to Rancho Seco, it will most likely be high teens, or maybe low 20s if we are lucky.
