Raymarine St60 Wind Troubleshooting
24-03-14, 21:34
Our ST60 wind transducer is 15 years old. It has worked reliably, if occasionally a bit reluctant below 5 knots apparent (aided by silicone spray but not easily applied!). Until now!
Suddenly last weekend it had stopped working completely - with the rotors not spinning, so mechanical rather than electrical. Was given plenty of opportunity to free itself - bouncing out into a chop and 20 knots apparent, plus a 25-30 knot squall later on. So it is firmly stuck.
One view was a bird may have damaged it, but the wind vane is on top and it is still working.
I don't generally do mast climbs, so keen to avoid multiple trips up. So any suggestions what the damage could be and how easily fixed?
I see there are service kits on eBay for about £50, but not sure what problems they might solve. Or is a complete arm a better bet and swap out, but looks to be pricey.
Any suggestions?
