Wireless wind indicator

[Jake Tanley]

Opinions vary, but we like our Tackticks a lot. 4 seasons in and aside from a lightening storm that took out a bunch of electronics at our marina, no problems at all (wind, speed and depth). Raymarine covered the strike out of warranty too (only lost the wind transmitter, not the control heads). Ours are full solar, so we can bring them down below when not sailing.

Wired/wireless, if there's something at the top of the mast you'll need to go up at some point.

How high is your mast? Our wireless wind instruments on top of our 70 ft mast stopped working after day 2....
