Raymarine Navigation Tacktick T060 Micro Compass.

Product Information

Although the fluxgate compass will operate accurately up to angles of 20 degrees either side of vertical the unit should be mounted vertically to allow it to operate effectively when the boat heals during normal sailing conditions. Ultra wide viewing anglesBattery level indicatorEasy to read large digitsData Displayed:HeadingTactical ScaleRace Timer Raymarine Wirelessdisplays are solar powered with integrated lithium batteries that power the unit for life. Power consumption is so efficient that units can run autonomously for up to 300 hours. Digital compasses deliver this data right into your natural field of view, where you need it, how you need it, when you need it. A typical installation can be done in just a few hours, with your rig in place and your boat still in the water. And there's no need for holes in the bulkhead or wires down the mast.

AllRaymarine Wirelessproducts are sealed for life and completely waterproof (submersible to 10m). This also means no condensation.The T060 Micro Compass has proven to be a huge advantage over competitors using glass ball compasses. To win races you must react to even small wind shifts. Readable, precise and reliable heading information from you compass is critical. Digital compasses deliver this data right into your natural field of view, where you need it, how you need it. How do you decide between these compasses? This article looks at the factors involved, but first why choose an electronic compass? You only have to look at Laser medal race videos to see that the vast majority of the top sailors have moved from analogue to electronic. Electronic compasses are smaller, lighter, but it is the ease of reading that is the main reason – the digital display is much clearer than the graduations on an analogue compass, isn’t subject to the variation dependent upon viewing angle, and is faster to respond to heading change. All these lead to electronic compasses having greater useable accuracy which make it far easier to see heading changes.

The Raymarine Wireless Micro Compass gives you a massive racing advantage. It is light, easy to read, reliable and precise. Using your iron, heat up the large hole first and just wedge the battery away from the board. Once that is done, see if you can remove the foam using a needle nose or a long screw driver. Then, heat up the smaller hole which is the center post of the battery. Use care when removing all four batteries, and save the foam. Do not wedge them against the LCD panel as it may break.Raymarine Wireless racing displays receive and display data wirelessly from Hull and Wind transmitters, including polar data, true wind speed and angle, VMG and compass heading.
