AutoTack angle

The AutoTack angle is not adjustable. The apparent wind angle when AutoTack is
initiated, is mirrored the other side of the wind, on the opposite tack.

Gybe inhibit

With gybe inhibit on:
• You will be able to perform an AutoTack into the wind.
• The SPX-5 Tiller system will prevent the boat from performing an AutoTack away
from the wind.
With gybe inhibit off, you can perform an AutoTack into or away from the wind.
