  • Page 8: Performance Functions

    Maxi Display Performance Functions of the Maxi Display Automatic Pages You probably want a different page shown on your Maxi Display for each leg of the course. The Maxi display makes this easy by providing a special page: the AUTO LEG page. Using this feature, you can programme your Maxi Display to show exactly the information you require for each leg of the course without the need to manually change pages at each mark rounding.
  • Page 9: Optimising Your Start With The Maxi Display

    Performance Functions Optimising your start with the Maxi Display The Maxi display provides three functions to help you get a great start: The Depart page shows your distance from the start line and how much faster (or slower) you must sail to hit the line at the start signal. The Race Timer gives you a visual and audible count down.

  • Page 11: During The Race

    Performance Functions During the Race While racing, you are continually trimming the sails and making course adjustments in order to maximise your speed towards the next mark. It is important to know whether changes are increasing or decreasing your performance. The Maxi Display provides Trend and Acceleration functions to help with this: The Speed, SOG, VMG-WIND and VMG-WPT pages can be configured to show Trend or Acceleration indicators: arrows to the right indicate...
  • Page 12 Maxi Display The Maxi Display automatically calculates your VMG to windward and the VMG-Wind page provides acceleration or trend arrows to help you assess the impact of changes to your course and sail trim. Wind Shift Like most things in sailing, the wind does not remain constant in either strength or direction.
  • Page 13 Performance Functions Sailing Downwind Sailing downwind, it is rarely fastest to aim directly for the mark. Usually it is better to sail at a higher angle to increase boat speed and gybe as necessary to reach the mark. The increase in speed can more than compensate for the additional distance sailed.
  • Page 14 Maxi Display Drift and Set Because the boat is not always moving directly in the direction of its compass heading you need to know the direction (SET) and the speed (DRIFT) by which the boat is being pushed off course. Tactically this is important when assessing when to tack or gybe to round a mark or clear an obstruction or headland.
