Tack Assist
While cruising or racing into the wind, the tack assist feature can
help you determine if your boat is being lifted or headed. When
you calibrate tack assist, the device captures your boat's port
À
and starboard
Á
course over ground (COG) measurements, and
uses the COG data to calculate the mean true wind direction
Â
and the boat's tack angle
Ã
.
The device uses this data to determine whether your boat is
being lifted or headed due wind shifts.
By default, the device tack assist is set to automatic, and the
device recalculates the tack angle and true wind direction each
time the port or starboard COG is calibrated. You can change
the tack assist settings to enter a fixed tack angle or true wind
direction.
NOTE: The quatix uses GPS-based course over ground to
determine your course in the tack assist feature, and does not
account for other factors that can affect your boat's direction,
such as currents and tides.
