Imagine slicing through choppy waters during a high-stakes regatta, where every degree of wind angle counts toward victory. The B&G WS710 Vertical Wind Pack delivers that edge with unmatched accuracy and reliability. Mounted on a sleek 0.8m high-modulus carbon spar, this sensor rises above sail turbulence at the masthead, capturing clean, undisturbed wind readings for true wind direction and speed. Sailors trust it for razor-sharp tactical decisions and seamless autopilot steering, whether you're chasing podium finishes or cruising with confidence.
Crafted from lessons learned in extreme ocean racing, this pack stands out by combining cutting-edge aerodynamics with straightforward setup. No more guesswork from distorted airflow—get data you can rely on to trim sails perfectly and outmaneuver the fleet.
The heart of the WS710 is its innovative one-piece vane, honed through extensive wind tunnel testing. This design slashes drag while boosting stability, ensuring rock-steady readings even in gusty conditions. The vertical carbon spar elevates the sensor 0.8m above the masthead, shielding it from blanket effects caused by headsails and mainsails.
Result? Smoother polars, faster VMG, and autopilot performance that hugs the optimal wind angle without wandering.
Setting up the WS710 feels intuitive, not overwhelming. The pack arrives ready with a 35m mast cable that snakes cleanly from sensor to cockpit, plus a handy 7-terminal junction box for tidy connections at the base. Choose from various spar lengths if you need to customize height, but this 0.8m option suits most modern racers and cruisers perfectly.
Simply attach the spar to your masthead, route the cable, and interface with your system—no specialized tools required. It's designed for quick deck swaps during regattas, keeping downtime to a minimum.
Plug into the ecosystem you already know. This wind pack connects effortlessly to H5000 processors or WTP3 systems via NMEA 0183, or expand to NMEA 2000 with an optional interface. Feed precise data to chartplotters, instrument displays, and autopilots for holistic boat performance monitoring.
Pair it with B&G's full suite, and watch your system transform raw wind into actionable insights—like layline predictions or puff alerts—that elevate your sailing IQ.
Everything you need for a complete, professional install right out of the box.
B&G WS710 Verticle Win Pack wih 35m Cable
Model: 000-14384-001The WS710 Wind Pack offers superb aerodynamics and accuracy. A 0.8m high modulus carbon spar elevates the wind sensor into clear air, above any sail-plan disturbance at the masthead. Pack includes 35m mast cable and junction box to aid mast-base connection.
The WS700 series is the ultimate wind sensor for performance sailing, providing the most accurate wind angle and speed data. The new one-piece vane design gives superb aerodynamics and stability, as a result of over 200,000 hours of combined design and wind tunnel testing.
The vertical spar minimises the effect of sail-plan on wind measurement ensuring the best performance with minimum calibration. This means reliable True Wind Direction to make precise race calls when needed and better steer-to-wind performance in all conditions when on autopilot.
Choose from 6 options of vertical high-modulus carbon spars from 0.8 to 1.8m**
Connect directly to H5000 or WTP3 via a NMEA 0183 input or to NMEA 2000 via the wired interface (sold separately)
WS700 connects to your instrument system via a single mast cable, available in 4 different lengths from 25 to 80m.
