Looking for your help with some information I'm having difficulty finding online. I don't have the opportunity to demo a lot of boards and would love your help understanding how much boards of different volume differences sink when there's no wind. Assume that the weight I'm talking about is the TOTAL weight of everything (rider, foil, wing, board, wetsuit).
How much does the board sink at these weight differences between weight in kg and liters. Board is flush with water? Board sinks to your ankles? Board sinks to your calves? Waist?
+10 difference (80kg total weight, 90L board)
+5 difference (80kg total weight, 85L board)
0 difference (80kg total weight, 80L board)
-5 difference (80kg total weight, 75L board)
-10 difference (80kg total weight, 70L board)
-15 difference (80kg total weight, 65L board)etc.
Thank you!

I'm 70kg
Wingboard is a 50L Appletree Slice V4 (-20L) . Kneeling on it it's a bit below the water but once there's wind in my sail it will come to the surface and get going pretty quick. If I hit a lull and I'm standing on the board I'll pretty quickly sink to waist deep while standing.
My surf SUP/Parawing board is a 87L Appletree Mid Length Skipper (+17L). While paddling it around standing some of the deck is submerged/water level, most of the rails are underwater but the nose is slightly above the water, I have to keep the board moving to keep it there
I could easily go smaller on the wingboard but I don't think I'd want to go too much less on the SUP
