| For the bigger boat sailors in the family, why not treat them to Tacktick’s latest and most versatile addition, the wireless Remote Display. Perfect for accessing data wherever you are, the Remote Display can be interfaced with other makes of marine instruments to display their data in the palm of your hand.
