What is the correct size for the numbers on a SF race sail? Also, where can you purchase the numbers?

It's all spelled out in the Class Rules. You can get numbers by contacting the Class office.

3.6.5 Sail Numbers. The objective of ISCA is for members to use sail numbers assigned only by the National Sunfish Class Association (NSCA) and to require uniformity so that numbers are easy to read.
Assignment. The NSCA shall assign to each member of the Class a unique sail number which shall be displayed on each side of the sail. This requirement shall be strictly enforced at all World Championship qualifying regattas beginning with new sails put into use after 1/1/96.
Size and Shape. The numbers must be easy to read, rounded in shape and of the following dimensions: Height: 10± 1/2”, (254± 13mm), Width: 7± 1/2” (178± 13mm), and Thickness: 1 3/4± 1/4” (45± 6mm)
Color. For white sails, numbers shall be dark and dense, preferably black. White numbers shall be used on dark sails. All digits on a sail must be the same color.
