I've been sailing quite a while now with just 1/4" audio tape, and I think it's helped me not stare at a vane. It was suggested that I get a vane by one of my consistently better competitors, so now I want to give it a try again. I kept breaking the telocat, so thought I'd try the red mylar vane instead. I think it's more sensitive than the telocat, and might be easier to read the angle than it is with the tape.
