I have 2 barely used 170s. They are both wonderful in light air, but being
lazy I hardly ever feel like unrigging the furling genoa to use them. Here
is what the mylar one looks like underway:

The use of 170s was popular here in the midwest as well. The old rule was
to keep the power up front; use the biggest genoa and reef early. With PHRF
some switched to 165s so they wouldn't tak

We were forced to sail shop last fall when in race two of five our well worn
155 split. We finished the series with a beautiful Kevlar 155 racing sail that
came with the boat. It goes down to the deck and can not be roller furled. We
ordered a new roller 155 and a new main to match. We got Da
Well if it comes to racing then I can see needing a 150 but if that is the
case then you are not really planing on a cruising sail after all. A sail
change is much easier with a full crew. I assumed that if you were looking
for a furling sail that it was for cruising.

I agree about the Genoa size. I would think that a 135 would be plenty
big. I can only sail my full 155 during light wind (10kts max) On very
rare occasions have I ever had a need to furl my 155 to less than 100.
When I do, it is only to help pull the nose around during a tack. The sail
