5.9.6 Head/Lift Trend Function
This function is particularly useful to racing yachtsmen when sailing upwind. A
port and starboard reference course can be set-up for each tack with
reference to the current mean wind direction. They are then used to calculate
whether the vessel is being ’lifted’ or ‘headed’ and by how much. This is
displayed graphically as well as numerically together with the legends LIFT
or HEAD which indicate if the heading is above or below the reference
course on the present tack.
Under steady conditions it should only be necessary to set-up this function
once, preferably prior to the start of a race. If, however significant wind shifts
occur it will be necessary to reset the port and starboard references.
A key benefit of this feature is that each time a tack is made or when
rounding a leeward mark onto the wind again, there is an instant indication as
to the current wind trend.
Note
The reference heading for a particular tack may be reset any number of
times. For example if there is a long upwind leg, resetting the reference at
the start of the leg will then give the head and lift trends from that point
onwards.
