In 11 to 19 knots I use a 140% genoa and the one I have is a very well cut sail so it drives us well even in the lower winds of 11 to 13 knots. In the stronger winds it drives us very well and helps to keep the boat flater. For the really heavy stuff of 20 knots and over I use a little 95% jib with battens.
