Raymarine ST50 forward wind transducer

Mine stopped working, went up the mast to clean it and then damaged the pins while trying to put back (hard to be hanging off an ATN mast climber)



Anyone has one for sale for a reasonable price?

Re: Raymarine ST50 forward wind transducer

Google search for these. I recommend new and a possible spare. By the time a used one shows up it has weathered a lot and may be substantially worn out. Alternately, I have sent mine to Raymarine for factory rebuild. This includes electronic inspection and mechanical rebuild.

Thanks Nicholson. How much did that cost? Do you know is they still do this?

Re: Raymarine ST50 forward wind transducer

Question can’t you replace the connectors? Both connectors.

Thinking of doing that now. I found one here:



The cups were not working 100% (that's why I went up in the first place) that's why I wanted a service but after generous McLube, cups seem to have been fixed. So it is the connector now I need to fix.
