Product Description
Competitive sailors and windsurfers know that getting a good start is key to winning the race. Enter the Suunto M3 wrist-top computer, which is custom designed to make sure competitors are at the right place at the right time. The device is easy to use: before the race, simply make a few practice starts to estimate the time to the starting line from a chosen position. Next, set the countdown timer to reflect the interim between the official signal and the start of the race (generally in the five-minute range). Once you hear the official signal, start the timer. The M3 will then let you know when to set off from your chosen position so you can cross the starting line right on time. And once the timer is synchronized, you can lock the countdown timer to ensure that it isn't changed by mistake.
The M3 also helps you determine the favored end of the start line, so you not only cross the line at the right moment but at the right place as well. By using the boat's compass and the M3's rotating bezel, you can quickly decide which end of the line is best. And once you're out on the course, the M3 continues to provide assistance by helping you calculate the bearing to the next race marker before reaching the turning point, and then comparing it to wind direction. This helps you steer the correct course as soon as possible, giving you a valuable advantage over 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). Then, after the race, you can check the M3's logbook to review the race times, time stamps, and the effectiveness of your strategy.
Plus, as with most of Suunto's wrist-top computers, the M3 also excels as a traditional watch, with time, date, dual time, and alarm options. Other features include an easy-to-read dot matrix display, a backlight option for night use, a water-resistant housing to 100 feet, and a user-replaceable battery. So give yourself a leg up on other sailors and windsurfers with this handy must-have.
The M3, which weighs 0.13 pounds, is backed by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.
