The Turbo Meter provides uncommon accuracy, sensitivity, and pocket-sized convenience. It is based on the principle that a freely turning turbine will rotate at a speed directly proportional to the wind speed. To insure maximum sensitivity and accuracy, the turbine is suspended on sapphire jewel bearings, and its rotation is sensed by an infrared light beam which adds no friction. The resulting signal is processed electronically by an LSI (Large Scale Integrated) circuit for improved reliability and reduced size. A special three digit display is used for extra resolution and provides excellent viewing contrast in bright sunlight. A handy switch selects between four different scales—knots, feet per minute, meters per second, and miles per hour—for unmatched versatility. Unit is compact size (2.6 x 4.7", 7x 12cm) and light weight ( 3oz., 85g). Measures wind speed from 0 - 99.9 mph.

“The only ship you can truly steer in this ocean is the one you’re sailing. Quit trying to alter the winds; harness them.”

– Richelle E. Goodrich

“Whenever I find myself growing grim […] I quietly take to the ship. Almost all men in their degree, some time or other, cherish very nearly the same feelings towards the ocean with me.”

– Herman Melville

“The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore.”

– Vincent Van Gogh
