Nova Sail NS Start

• True magnetic tactical compass with "3 levels sensitivity" : The NS360+ digital compass delivers precise and reliable heading information to help you to tack and jibe at the most suitable times. Through a simple push button, the sub-modes let you decide the required sensitivity (High / Medium / Low) based on your boat, your style, and the current weather conditions.

• Speedo gps : This mode provides the speed over ground of the boat as measured by the GPS receiver. The sub-modes provide several speed resolutions (High / Medium / Low), the trip distance and the VMG. The boat speed is displayed in knots (kts) with an accuracy of 0.1 knot. The minimum speed is 0.5 knot.

• Wind Shift bar graph: The bar graph indicates automatically the deviation from the mean heading. If you tack or jibe, the graph is reset and will restart on the new tack

• Distance to the start line: The best on the market !: The NS360+ start line distance function is clearly the most advanced on the market as it combines the 1 meter accuracy delivered by the GPS and a dynamic boat offset compensation calculated with the real boat magnetic heading to the start line. A sign +/- indicates you clearly on which side of the line you are sailing.

• Wind direction indicator: The NS360+ displays the numerical value of the wind direction allowing an immediate and effortless reading. The wind direction is calculated automatically based on your 2 tacks.

• VMG: Velocity Made Good: It provides the projected speed of the boat on the reference direction. According to your needs, the reference direction may be the wind direction or the direction to the upwind mark.

• Count-down timer: From 1 to 9 minutes, it can be re-synchronized while running. This is clearly the easiest and smartest timer ever.

• Waypoint management:
  • Enter 100 waypoints with their coordinates and names on 3 characters
  • Display the Distance, direction and speed to reach the waypoints

• Simplified Interface:

When selected, only the Compass-Start line distance and Speed/VMG-timer are accessible on the Upper and lower lines.

• Advanced Interface:

All functions and parameters are accessible, together with thefull waypoint management.

• AUTOMATIC SWITCH of Timer and Start Line distance:

After the start, the timer and start line distance switch automatically to the compass and speedo or any other selected modes.
