Davis Black Max Wind Direction Indicator

The Davis Black Max Wind Direction Indicator is a wind vane for small sailboats that attaches quickly to the mast or boom. Its 8 inch vane is high-impact plastic built to take the abuse of small boat sailing. It's an easy way to read the wind at a glance without looking up at the masthead.

A stainless steel mounting arm and set screw hold it in place, and the mounting base is tough plastic. Mounting it low on the mast or boom keeps it in your line of sight while you trim. It comes off just as quickly when you're done for the day.

Black Max is packaged in its own unbreakable storage sleeve, which protects the vane between sails. That's useful on dinghies and daysailers that get trailered or stored in a garage. Check the available mounting space and surrounding hardware before installation so a correct part number does not turn into a clearance problem. Browse more sailing hardware.
