Hi all,
I have a Navman Wind 3100 for the past 3 years, and generally I am happy with it. Lately though I suspect the measurements are kind of low - I see white caps all around but the thing only shows 17 kts of wind...
So, two questions for the knowlegeable people:
1) Although a manual does not say anything, should the rotating masthead unit be oiled or cleaned periodically?
2) Any cjance someone has a hand-held anemometer that I can borrow to calibrate myt instrument? I know people recommend to calibrate it by the boat speed in a windless day by motoring - there is always SOME wind here on the bay...
Thanks,
Stanly
