yes I have the st 60 pack wind, speed and depth all tied together by seatalk...the old system seems very simple but the algorithms used to resolve the input vectors seem to give good numbers considering that calibrating boat speed readings to be accurate on both tacks goes...I have checked my windspeed with others whenever we raft up and the agreement is good but hard to calibarte more accurately than that
