Why it lives in the kit bag
Built for the committee boat, not the catalogue
- No aiming. The vane spins on a full circle, so a rolling boat does not cost you accuracy.
- One hand. Your other hand stays on the rail, the radio or the flag.
- Readable in sunglasses. The display works through polarised lenses.
- Two years, anywhere. If it breaks, Windie fixes or replaces it, wherever you sail.
