The WS710 Wind Pack offers superb aerodynamics and accuracy. A 0.8m high modulus carbon spar elevates the wind sensor into clear air, above any sail-plan disturbance at the masthead. Pack includes 35m mast cable and junction box to aid mast-base connection.
The WS700 series is the ultimate wind sensor for performance sailing, providing the most accurate wind angle and speed data. The new one-piece vane design gives superb aerodynamics and stability, as a result of over 200,000 hours of combined design and wind tunnel testing.
The vertical spar minimises the effect of sail-plan disturbance on wind measurement ensuring the best performance with minimum calibration. This means reliable True Wind Direction to make precise race calls when needed and better steer-to-wind performance in all conditions when on autopilot.
Choose from 4 options of vertical high-modulus carbon spars from 0.8 to 1.8m** in standard or ocean specification.
WS700 series follows the same physical mounting as previous models (VHMU) providing an easy upgrade path.
