Hunter 386-2002 St60 Wind Instrument ST60

[Gary Ryan]

Hey Guys, Finally got our new/used Hunter 386 in the water. What a relief. It has the old Raytheon ST60 Instrument pack on her. The Wind is not working. I have to try and isolate. I need to look at the connection into the instrument first then move on. To remove the top of the Console/Helm do you just remove the 4 philip screws? I have also pulled down the cables below the mast to inspect. Any words of wisdom?

Certainly search their forum for answers; but, don’t hesitate posing a question on the Raymarine forum. I have found them very responsive to the extreme. I once had the Sr. Product Support Engineer actual call me at home to resolve an issue I had been struggling with.

Is the LCD wind display working (displaying anything)? If not, it's probably a complicated problem. If the paddle wheel up on the mast isn't spinning in the breeze, but you see 0.0 Kts on the display, it could just be that the bearings in the wind transducer (up on the mast) have gone bad. Much easier problem to solve. See

Our Hunter 306 was fully outfitted in 2004 by the dealer with a Raymarine C80 chartplotter, ST60 wind, ST40 depth and speed, and an ST4000+ wheel autopilot, all mounted on navpods at the helm. Everything worked well in 2016 when we were last in the water, but the C80 is now dead, and the wind...
