Find the Right Wind Indicator for Your Boat
Masthead vanes are great for yachts and keelboats, while smaller dinghies benefit from boom or deck-mounted indicators. Many come with high-visibility tips and adjustable arms for use in light or strong winds.
Burgees & Tell Tales
Burgees aren't just decorative—they help show apparent wind direction at a glance. Meanwhile, tell tales help you read airflow across your sails, ideal for improving trim whether you're racing or just learning the ropes.
