Velocitek ProStart 120mm (4.72") x 175mm (6.89") x 40mm (1.57") Finally the perfect instrument for the perfect start. The ProStart first has a start mode, designed for use as a timer, with the option of synching when you miss that crucial first gun and also gives you the start line position with only two buttons. A simple design, there are two buttons with symbols signifying either the committee boat or the pin. All you need to do is sail to either end and set it, then it will read your distance from the line. After the starting gun, the ProStart immediately switches over to race mode where it will give you speed, heading, max speed, averages and GPS. Main Display Modes of the SpeedPuck:
There is a mounting bracket that bolts to a plastic cradle that is included with the Prostart. Also, it is compatible with any Tacktick Micro Compass bracket.

Viper 640: Velocitek Speedpuck |

 |
Velocitek SpeedPuck 4.5" Diameter, 1" Thickness The SpeedPuck combines a high-accuracy GPS speedometer, compass and bar graph wind shift indicator in a compact, durable package. It is designed to be mounted on a dinghy or handheld when hiking on a sportboat. The SpeedPuck improves your sailing by allowing you to quantify the effects of boat trim, sail trim, wind shifts and current. No more second guessing yourself! The SpeedPuck is designed for long-term reliability in a saltwater marine environment. The SpeedPuck's caseback screws on and off like the lid of a leak-proof water bottle to reveal the battery compartment. In addition to this, the battery compartment is completely sealed off from the rest of the device's electronics, providing a second layer of protection against moisture. Do you hate reading manuals? The SpeedPuck is specifically designed so that almost anyone can figure out how it works in a few minutes without having to read anything. Main Display Modes of the SpeedPuck:
The SpeedPuck comes with a lanyard to hang around your neck for "at hand" information. However, if you'd like to mount the SpeedPuck to a flat surface, use Dual Lock material (sold separately). Dual Lock works like super aggressive Velcro; two pieces may be necessary to guarantee a complete hold.
