The Weathervane kit for the Hobie Island Kayak will help you keep your trimaran on the best course with respect to the wind and therefore improve sailing.
The Hobie Island Kayak Weathercock kit helps you understand the changes in the wind direction and be able to better trim the sails, achieving better performance and better courses.
Above the head of the mast is the wind flow is more constant and with less turbulence, making it the optimal location for a wind direction wind vane. When navigating, wind directions are usually not constant. As the wind changes direction, we must trim the sails to obtain the best performance.
The Hobie Island Kayak Weathercock kit is designed for all Hobie Adventure Island kayak models when a spinnaker kit is not being used (the Spinnaker kit has its own wind vane). Simply slide over the head of the mast and tighten it in place with a thumbscrew.
