For a yachtsman planning a voyage, the ability to predict the weather is essential.
The rate of change of barometric pressure and history of wind speed can be an invaluable indicator of imminent conditions.
Many sailors rely on low cost domestic barometers, which are inaccurate, have low resolution and very poor history. Several quality paper recording instruments exist but are delicate, fiddly to use and rely on paper which can jam when damp. The MeteoMan overcomes all these problems. It provides an accurate, high resolution barograph recording in excess of five days data on barometric pressure and wind speed. It is easy to use, reliable, rugged and draws very little power from the boat’s battery.
