A good starting point is to measure the width of the board at the middle of the back foot straps. The fin should be about that length for the smaller sails that you use and maybe 5 cm bigger for the bigger sails. Heavier sailors can go a size bigger. That's for a semi pointer freeridy style of fin.

Guessing your board isn't on any website. Perhaps do some searching for similar size freeride boards and see what they recommend. Should at least give a rough idea.
