Furuno WS-200
Furuno WS-200 is a reliable weather sensor that provides up—to-date weather data 24/7. It is able to collect information about wind speed, temperature, wind direction, barometric pressure, GPS location, keel and side pitching angle of the vessel, ship speed and true wind direction. The sensor is connected directly to a computer or navigation equipment via NMEA 0183 and 2000 protocols. Due to the absence of moving parts, the device has increased durability and a long service life compared to traditional devices.
