A Tadorne instrument
Mast-foot display. The racing numbers, large, facing the cockpit, on one cable: the NMEA 2000 drop.
On a French racing boat, the ardoise is the board where headings and useful numbers are written in marker. Ardoise shows the same numbers at the foot of the mast, facing the cockpit.
A reflective screen that returns daylight instead of fighting it. Readability in sun and through polarised glasses will be tested and published.
A single NMEA 2000 drop powers it and brings the instruments' data. No other cable entry.
A machined, sealed aluminium tube, designed for the foot of the mast: green water, UV, surface heat, vibration. Tests will be published with their reports.
Before the board, the pages: what reads at six metres, printed at full scale.
