Hunter 25_73-83 Burlington NJ
I am looking for a wind-speed gauge and relative-wind indicator for a 1974 Hunter 25. I would like these both to be ANALOG; the anenometer might be digital if needs be. These would complement my existing knotmeter and depth gauge that are 4" round bulkhead-mount gauges. I seem to recall Kenyon made industry-standard gauges back in the 70s, but there were others and I can't remember who. I would like an alternative to SR Mariner who seem to be hard to reach on their web site and are probably getting out of the analog-gauge business (like everyone else). Can anyone direct me to a good source for used, rebuilt, and/or low-tech wind instruments? (an EBay search came up negative... so far.) I'll need these in the next 10 weeks. JC 2

Check Signet Marine

They still manufacture some analog instruments. Ned and Tani Strain s/v Family Therapy 1995 h336 Chicago

Ned is right. . . .

I think. :) My '79 Cherubini has the original Signet depth and log still working fine. However when I added wind I purchased the complete Nexus package. So far just the digital "multi" display but the analog wind display is next. Had trouble with Ned's link but not with the one below. Looks like that "SL254" would match your others nicely.
