Minimum wind angle (NORMAL) 
The ‘Minimum wind angle’ is 
the minimum apparent wind 
angle that will keep the sails 
well shaped and give an 
acceptable thrust. This 
parameter will vary from boat 
to boat. 
The ‘Minimum wind angle’ applies in the tack-prevent function. 
It also applies when the autopilot is navigating in Wind mode. 
Range: 15 – 90° 
Default: 30° 
Minimum wind angle (RACING) 
If ‘Wind setup’ is set to 
RACING, you can set different 
minimum wind angles for port 
and starboard.  
The difference between port and starboard wind angles will be 
taken into account when calculating the Estimated Time to Turn 
(ETT) and Distance To Turn (DTT). 
The minimum wind angle also applies when the autopilot is 
optimising the VMG (available parameter in the Quick setup 
menu when ‘Wind setup’ is set to RACING). 
Range: 15 – 90° 
Default: 30° 
Tack angle (RACING) 
The autopilot can tack also in 
AUTO-mode. The set tack 
angle replaces a similar change 
of the set course using the 
course knob. 
Range: 50 – 150° 
Default: 100°
