Hey, am I missing something? The red and green scale is supposed to give the same number on each tack. eg Green 0 on stbd, Red 0 on port. But look at the pic, that is what it is reading on the two lubber lines now WITHOUT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE BOAT MOVING THROUGH 80-90 DEGREES between tacks.
The manufacturers have an explanitory video. But he cheats, see second pic. He is not aligning the compass with his heading but points it into the wind on both tacks. In real world tacking you get junk readings. Surely this is a well known balls-up, or am I missing something.
