Windex 15 Birdspike

Description

Windex 15 Wind Vane Indicator c/w Bird Spike – 380mm

Windex are the world’s leading wind indicators.  Windex have a light, balanced vane with large fin area and low friction SAPPHIRE jewel suspension. These features make the Windex respond quickly and accurately at wind speeds as low as 0.2 knots (0.1metre/second). The tacking tabs can be adjusted to the apparent wind direction for port and starboard tacking. The Windex 15 vane and tacking tabs feature reflective markers under the vane making them highly visible at night. The Windex 15 is the standard model wind vane for ocean racing and cruising. Spares are available.
 
The valuable addition of a spike prevents those airborne critters from trying to land on it and bending or even breaking the direction arms. The spike adds just 6 grams to the weight.
