genoa for a capri 16?

[Boat Babe]

I just bought a capri 16 with a fixed wing keel, 2.5 ft. draft. What is the advantage of buying a 135% o 150% genoa headsail? Would it make much of a difference and is it worth the money?

135 or 150 genoa and assym spinnaker

I have a Capri 18 with a roller-furled 135 genoa. I was looking into getting a 150 instead, as I often see light winds. It was recommended that I get an assymetrical *drifter* spinnaker type of sail to accompany the 135. The 135 is of heavier cloth and will stand up to the higher winds better than the 150. The drifter is supposed to be better in light winds than the 150. I'll probably get one for next year.
