Works perfectly
Initially, I had some Bluetooth connectivity issues. I was able to resolve these following the SVB instructions. Since then, the anemometer has been working flawlessly and displays the data on my Vulcan7. Setting it up after the aforementioned issues was very easy. The range is good, which allowed me to mount the receiver below deck.

very easy to install
It's just great because you don't have to lay any cables in the mast. The thing has been working for 2 years now without any problems.

Simply installed. If you have the previous model, just install the new Wingener.

Reliable
I previously had a gWind2 Wireless from Garmin, which kept breaking down. Now I have a cable again and it's from B&G. I couldn't be happier.

fast delivery to Bergen (Norway)
The wind sensor was delivered to Norway quickly (approx. 8 days). Just lift the mast, remove the defective wind sensor and click in the new one. It worked straight away. No registration etc.

After the wired predecessor stopped working due to a short circuit (caused by a leaky deck connector), the new anemometer does exactly what it was built for.

The advice from SVB employees when ordering and integrating the part into NMEA 2000 was excellent.

Great product, very stable data, Windpilot works perfectly.
The user manual is inadequate. Pairing instructions were only found after searching online. After connecting the power supply to the Bluetooth receiver, the battery must be connected to the sensor within 10 seconds.

Not yet in use
After a lightning strike in Colombia, the Windex stopped working.

Four weeks later, a lightning strike struck the neighboring vessel at anchor in San Blas, Panama.

The old one is working again – repolarization of the data interface?

The new one was then brought on board in Colón and put in the lazarette as a backup.

However, the second nearby lightning strike delivered the NAIS 500 transceiver.

Lifetime about 2 years.
This is a second B&G wind transmitter I have to install in 2 years. Will see how much time the newly installed transmitter will work.

Short lifespan
The sensor works well, but only lasted about two years. After it was returned to SVB and checked by the manufacturer, it was replaced without hesitation.

Pairing the WS320 with the sensor is nightmare
Product arrived with nice packing of protection. The isntallation however is notoriously difficult regarding the WS320 pairing with the sensor. There is no indicator like a small LED to know if something is happening and it took us to redo the procedure about 10 times to finally have a result. ( looking at the web we are not the only ones to get this known problem of pairing difficulties)
Once the system is recognized, it works fine, but we think about people who set up the sensor on top of the mast and if the pairing between unit and WS320 receiver stop to work after a boat storage !
