We use a 135 Genoa on a roller furler on our 323.  Works out well on the Chesapeake, where light air is the norm in mid summer.

Here is another vote for something close to 130 on a 323.  We have a 130, with luff tape, on our 323.  Works nicely on light air days on Lake Superior, but maintains usable shape reduced substantially. 

Bittergreen 3:
Thanks, I have purchased a new 135.  I always felt that the 150 I was using what not very efficient  The shape when roller reefed was poor.  I am hoping for improved performance using a 135. I will find out when the ice is gone.

Alma:
I have a 150 and I don't like it. I'm going to shop for a 130-135.

If anyone sees nice used one please send me a heads up.
