[CA] [CA11] ST60 wind sensor

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Harry,

Q1. Is the attached picture a R28170 (complete unit)?
A1. Negative. R28170 is the part number for the standard length (14-1/2") masthead wind transducer alone. R28171 is the part number for the long length (26") masthead wind transducer alone. Both will fit the currently installed masthead block should it still be in place. If seeking the wind transducer, masthead block, and cable, then the part numbers are E22078 (30m) and E22079 (30m) depending upon whether you will want the standard length transducer with a masthead block and 30m or or long length transducer with a masthead block and 30m cable respectively.

Q2. Do you make a bird spike like Windex uses (of course, the spike on my Windex has a 30 degree bend.....)
A2. Negative.

A3. Am I likely to find other failures up there, or is it simply a case of "buy, climb mast, screw to plug/mount"?
A3. Unfortunately, the only way to know would be to inspect the transducer's masthead block by sending someone up the mast, lowering the mast, or perhaps by using a UAV (drone) with high def camera should you have access to one or know someone who does and is willing to assist.
