    Does anyone have experience with this unit? My wind direction indicator needs adjustment. On a S/B tack I read 60 degrees off the wind when close hauled and about 10-15 degrees off the wind on a Port tack close hauled.

    Winter Storage for Instruments Up North

    I was curious if there would there be any advantage to removing my instruments for the winter months. We get some fairly cold winters up here in Michigan. I was most concerned with the compass. Will the cold weather affect this instrument in anyway? Thanks, Brian E31C Nemo

    Wind Instruments

    I have my mast down on my E27 for several reasons, one being to do something about an old SR Mariner anemometer that has needed replacement cup assemblies on three or four occasions over 15 years. It seems they should be more durable than that. But to honest, when it wasn't working, I really...
