Quite something, Jim. Even has its own built-on bird poop protector. I wonder how well it works on a heeling boat, say 20-30 degrees off level. I also note that some of the max interface cable runs would not make it down a mast. Ingenious idea.

I think I read that these kind of sensors do better in healing boats than the normal ones, which apparently have some errors from healing.

That is what I read: "*The resulting wind angle measurement stayed constant as the boat heeled and rolled underneath the sensor, even when amplified by my 50 foot high mast!* " On Thu, Dec 8, 2011 at 7:45 PM, Mike McElhaney <mi… [at] wahini.org> wrote: > ** > > > Airmar makes a similar unit > http://www.panbo.com/archives/2009/02/sailing_with_an_airmar_pb200_.html > > *Sent from my Motorola ATRIX™ 4G on AT&T* > > > -----Original message----- > > *From: *"Husar, Charlie [USA] (ASE)" <hu… [at] bah.com>* > To: *"Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com" <Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com>* > Sent: *Fri, Dec 9, 2011 03:38:59 GMT+00:00* > Subject: *RE: [Cal_Boats] 200-7000 WindSonic Ultrasonic Anemometer - > NovaLynx Corporation > > Quite something, Jim.

Wow, cool stuff. I'm looking in Craigs list for a slightly used, or even brand new if slightly defective Airbus pitot tube system, like the one Air France once used, since I figure down here in So Cal icing won't be too much of a problem. I wonder who makes, er, uh, made them? Thank you, google. I need a Thales model AA. Wooo Hoo!
