Windex 15
WINDEX Wind Direction Indicators offer exceptional performance at the best value of any wind indicator worldwide. The secret is the sapphire jewel suspension bearing allowing the Windex 15 to seek relative wind direction in winds as little as 2/10th's of a knot. It also features a large fin - low inertia vane and easy-to-read, fully adjustable tacking tab system. Reflector tape on the vane and tacking tabs make WINDEX 15 easy to see day and night. WINDEX vanes are sturdy and when installed properly, offer many years of use. They have been wind tunnel tested to wind speeds of 80 knots!
The WINDEX 15 has a 15" (38 cm) vane. Includes through-bolt or drill and tap mounting socket; 5/16" -18 stainless stud, washers and nut. Stands 12.75" (32 cm) tall and weighs just 3.9 ounces (111 g).
Windex XL
WINDEXL is the latest variant of the world famous WINDEX product range that is seen on hundreds of thousands of sailing boats around the world. At 23 inches the new WINDEXL is one and half times the size of the WINDEX 15, and is the largest of the current models.
The WINDEXL has come about due to an increasing demand from larger yachts and is recommended for masts 17-30 meters (55 to 100 feet). Recently built sailboats have grown steadily larger and their masts increasingly taller. The new, larger WINDEXL model is designed for these yachts. In the last few decades, for example, virtually all of the single hull yachts in the America’s Cup – Volvo Ocean race have been equipped with a WINDEX.
