How the smarttune 3/4" Fits into Your Sailing Setup
The smarttune 3/4" is designed for mid-to-large performance yachts and offshore racers, making it ideal for:
✔ Shrouds and sidestays – Maintain precise, repeatable rig tension for performance gains.
✔ Backstays and forestays – Optimise mast bend and sail shape for different wind conditions.
✔ Race tuning – Track and refine settings for consistent high-speed performance.
Safety and Reliability
- Overload Protection: Do not exceed 150% of the calibrated load, as this may cause permanent sensor damage requiring recalibration.
- Calibration: After extended use under load, allow 1-2 minutes for the sensor to return to zero when unloaded.
