The GWS 10 wind sensor gives you, the sailer, even more control by allowing
you to maximise the performance and speed of your boat with wind vane
technology.
Discover the Benefit of Harnessed Wind Power
GWS 10 uses a wind vane for detection of wind direction and an anemometer to
register wind speed. These measurements enhance your boat’s potential as you
adjust your sail accordingly to harness the wind’s strength.
Besides delivering wind measurements, GWS 10 captures barometric pressure and
air temperature data. When combined with other sensors, GWS 10 enables those on
board to gather specific wind data such as ground and true wind, wind VMG and
track heading.
Enjoy Simple Interface and NMEA 2000® Connectivity
Combining wind and weather measurement from a single, integrated sensing
unit, GWS 10 installs with ease – providing data output to your cockpit display
via NMEA 2000 cable and bus, which powers the unit. GWS 10 is designed to
interface with Garmin’s GMI™ 10 universal marine instrument, the 4000 and marine
touchscreen 5000 chartplotter series or any manufacturer’s NMEA 2000-enabled
chartplotters and displays.
