M3

In competitive
sailing and windsurfing, getting a good start is about being in the
right place at the right time. Suunto M3 helps make sure that that is
exactly where you are.
To get you to
the right place on the start line - and at the right time, Suunto M3
not only helps you to determine the favored end of the start line, but
it also displays the time to the start line in connection with the start
timer to help you cross the line at just the right moment.
Loud signals
and large numbers, together with a race timer for easy synchronization
with the race committee, mean that you won't be caught napping when
it's time for the off.
Deeper Understanding
Before the race, you can make practice starts to estimate the time to
the start line from a chosen position. Then, if the official signal
is given five minutes before the start, set the countdown timer to five
minutes and start it at the official signal. This way, you'll know exactly
when to set off from your chosen position in order to cross the start
line right on time. Once the timer is synchronized, you can lock the
synchro to ensure that the timer synchronization isn't changed by mistake.
Suunto M3 also
helps you determine the favored end of the start line so that you're
not just there at the right time, but at the right place too. By using
the boat's compass and the Suunto M3's rotating bezel, it is simple
and quick to decide which end of the line to head for.
Information in Action
Once out on the course, Suunto M3 continues to provide assistance by
allowing you to calculate the bearing to the next race marker, before
you reach the turning point, and compare it to the wind direction. This
way, you can steer the correct course as soon as possible, giving you
a valuable advantage over your competitors.
You can also
mark the wind direction with the rotating bezel to track wind shifts,
monitor the race time, and add time stamps (interval times). After the
race, you can check Suunto M3's logbook to review the race times and
time stamps.
