You can also set the Port and Starboard reference angles by pressing the
corresponding PORT and STBD buttons on the ANGLE screen to record the
current heading. Keep in mind that an instantaneous snapshot can introduce
some error in the reference angles.
We recommend checking your reference angles before every race and
resetting them if necessary. The ANGLE screen also shows some additional
useful information, including an estimate of the wind direction (the midpoint
between the Port and Starboard reference angle), the dead downwind angle,
the tacking angle and average upwind speed.
