This simple tool can take the maths and the guess work out of the start line instantly. Helping you quickly make your start decisions so you can start thinking about your positioning rather than the bias! The wot-tac is hand held and sized so that it can be conveniently kept in your buoancy aid pocket or on the supplied lanyard.
