Hello,

I have inserted a photo of the top of my mast of my Hunter 23. Can anyone please make a recommendation for a top-of-mast wind direction indicator that is relatively easy to install and that is robust. By robust, I mean it will stand up to 30 knot winds in the San Francisco Bay area.

Many thanks,

Mark

I like this Wintec aluminum arrow model.... way stronger than the Davis plastic arrow model. More expensive, but much more robust... making it a better value.

I have to replace my Davis on a Capri 22 every other year because of birds breaking off pieces as they use the windex to roost. A metal wind vane may give me more life with the birds.

get this type with the spike, and tie fishing line where i made the red lines. just drill two small holes for the line one on the fin and one on the tip. that keeps the birds off it.
