To cancel the wind shift alarm:
• check that the new course does not take the boat into danger
• press
standby and auto together momentarily to accept the alarm and reset
the wind shift alarm value to the current compass heading
Operating hints for WindTrim mode
• WindTrim filters the wind vane output. This provides optimum response for
offshore conditions where genuine shifts in wind direction occur gradually.
• In gusting and unsteady inshore conditions, it is best to sail a few degrees fur-
ther off the wind so that changes in apparent wind direction can be tolerated.
• It is important to minimize the amount of standing helm through careful sail
trimming and positioning of the mainsheet traveller.
• It is recommended that the headsail and mainsail are reefed a little early
rather than too late.
