Cable-free marine sensors make upgrading wind instruments accessible without complex mast wiring.
Your masthead wind sensor is easily one of the hardest-working bits of kit on board. If you want better data, B&G has updated its lineup with the WS310 and WS320 sensors. These units deliver a serious step up in both wind speed and angle accuracy. That gives you a lot more confidence when cruising offshore or racing around the buoys.
Real-world sailing tests
Unlike basic instruments, these sensors are built specifically for proper sailing conditions. B&G put them through extensive wind tunnel and heel-angle testing. This means you get reliable, consistent numbers when it actually matters – while you are fully under sail. Precise data directly improves your sail trim, tactics, and autopilot performance.
Going wireless on the mast
If you hate the idea of pulling wires, the wireless WS320 model makes life much easier. It completely eliminates the need to run cables down the inside of your mast. Installation is quick, and the unit relies on solar charging with a long battery life to stay connected season after season. For traditional setups, the cabled WS310 version remains available with a 20-metre interface.
