Setting Bow Offset
Options: [ 0m to +12.5m ] Default: 0m
The sixth config menu selects a bow offset. The default is 0m.
You will see ‘b OFFSEt’ scrolling across the bottom display and some distance from 0 (default), to 12.5m
on the top display. Pressing the RC button will increase the bow offset by 0.1m and PIN button will

Bow offset is the distance in meters from where the ProStart is mounted to the bow of your boat. In
start mode the offset is used to calculate the distance between the tip of your bow and the start line.
For more information on setting the line with and without the bow offset see Understanding Distance to
Start Line section on page 31.

the ProStart is in Start Mode. Alternatively, when 0 is selected the distance will display in increments of
1m.
