Recognize this wind speed socket????

Hi folks - my E29 came with a mast head wind/speed direction socket at the masthead and cable running down the mast but no gauges or sensor. Pics of the socket are attached. There are 5 electrical contacts in the female screw on socket and 1 squarish bigger hole. I'd like to get the sensor and guages but does anyone recognize its type??
Thanks
Ron

That looks exactly like the Autohelm setup I removed from my boat. Autohelm was purchased by Raymarine. The mounting bolt pattern is matched by the Raymarine ST60+ unit that replaced it. If I had to guess, the Raymarine wind transducer would plug right into that one you have there. That is a nice solid piece of alloy, the new stuff is all plastic.

Yup - that looks exactly like the Autohelm mounting bracket for the Autohelm wind instrument I installed on our masthead.
