hi dmfick. thanks for your post, its very interesting as ive only been out 6 times, and have found the need to know exactly where the wind is coming from, so i know when im looking good, and when not, regards my sail.
would this work perfectly on the ai single, as i would imagine the sails webbing loop at the top is very similar? how exactly do you attach it, and is it easily removeable or better kept attached?
yesterday i hit my top speed of 11mph, and on checking the wind history, would have been dealing with winds around 25mph, at its peak.
The regular AI does not have the webbing loop at the top of the sail - if you search elsewhere there's lots of debate on the topic of how to add a wind indicator to the AI. I think the new loop on the TI is there for the planned, but now questionable jib kit that Hobie is hoping to release. In any case, it is serediptous - almost like it was designed to accomodate the Davis Instriments Spar Fly.
