Large Aerovane – Mast Head Mounted

Description

Large Aerovane – Mast head-mounted.

Designed for use on larger dinghies, sport boats and keelboats up to 28ft.

The Aerovane features a built-in counterweight which ensures accurate indication of apparent wind angle. The counterweight also stops the Aerovane from “flapping” side to side in strong winds, which is common amongst other styles.

The large Aerovane also includes an adjustable tacking tab system, showing downwind and upwind apparent wind angles more clearly. Especially helpful for boats which use a spinnaker.

The Aerovane has been shaped to be large enough to read whilst remaining small enough to not create unnecessary drag.

The underside of the large Aerovane is pad-printed white. This gives good contracts against the black plastic making it easier to read from the deck of the boat.

When assembling, firmly push the Aerovane onto the rod until you hear a click. The Aerovane can be removed by pulling with force from the rod.

To fix the Aerovane to the top of your mast you will need to use the supplied A4066 – Burgee clip.

You can also fix the Aerovane to the mast crane using the A.172 Aerovane mast crane adaptor (not included). The mast crane adaptor screws into the tapped hole found at the top of a mast crane. The Aerovane is held in place by a small grub screw.
