Tacktick is currently the only marine electronics manufacturer to provide an effective solution to this problrme. By installing a T221 Mast Rotation ransmitter. This unit attached to the mast and will compensate for mast rotatioin allowing Apparent and True wind information to be generated correctly whatever the angle of the mast. A Micronet system equipped with a Fluxgate compass or Magnetic Heading from an external NMEA source is required along with the Mast Rotation Sensor.
