[LW11] screen polarisation, polarised glasses and water droplets - sailshade - 08-19-19 07:52 AM

Dear All,

I am usually wearing polarised glasses when sailing to reduce the water reflection. It's what works best for me.
Now the problem is that often when the boat is heeling more than 20° if I keep my heads on my shoulders the axiom screen becomes unreadable on one take... The other tack is fine.

Any workaround? beside the obvious don't wear polarised glasses?
Why chose a 45° polarised display in the first place? is there a way to depolarise or circle polarise the light coming out of the screen?

Also another problem I am facing when sailing is that water droplets from waves or rain seem to trig arbitrary random inputs to my screen. Any hint on how to prevent that?

Thank you in advance.
