Airmar WS-PB150 NMEA 0183 Weatherstation

The enhanced PB150 Ultrasonic WeatherStation® Instrument features higher-accuracy temperature readings and improved wind speed and direction accuracy over the previous PB100 model. It also includes a GPS antenna and a solid-state compass. The included WeatherCaster™ PC Software version 2.0 puts your own personal weatherman on-board the boat, 24 hours a day. The easy-to-use program has multiple screen views and advanced setup features to customize what you want to see.

The PB150 can also be connected to an NMEA 0183 display for up-to-the-minute weather information. Before Leaving the Dock—Decide if you want to spend your day on the water. Anticipate weather fronts by checking the wind speed and direction, temperature, and barometric pressure. Check the weather history graphs, as the Weathercaster Software can store readings for up to 72 hours. Underway—Monitor up-to-the-minute weather conditions at your location. See where and when the fish will bite best based on wind conditions and a rising or falling barometer. Docking—The on-board PC or chart plotter can display true wind data to make docking a vessel in high wind a breeze.
