Hey Tiger, guess it also depends on your skill level! Anyway a mate of mine about the same weight recently did the same and tried a few boards, but is happy with his 150 litre board in light winds. For stronger winds, go smaller. I've heard the rule of thumb = sailor wt + 20kg = board vol. Good on you for getting back into such a top sport! Get yourself a GPS to go to the next level.

yes, what was your skill level and how long since you windsurfed?
Are you looking at getting into waves or flat water? Wind range?
