I am sailing a 151 litre Starboard Carve and only weigh 75kg.
My sails are 4.3, 5.3 and 6.6 metres and the fin is Drake Freeride 480 deep.
Starboard recommend sail range 6.5 to 10 metre.
I am having trouble progressing and wonder if the board is too big for me.
I would appreciate any advice.

What stage are you at??? We need more info???
Are you in the harness and straps???
Fully plainning???
Just a few weeks into it????

It is a big board for your weight but it depends on what stage your at.

I have been sailing for 5 years, but not much for the last 3 years.
On my previous board (Starboard Go) I was into the harness and the footstraps in forward position.
Never really managed to plane it, but since I'm currently out of work I hope to get more practice over this season.
