The kiteboat project finds it essence back in 1997 when Don Montague started working with kites on various types of boats. Later, a team has been formed and works since 2008 in the aim to develop kite propulsion systems for future broad use.
The experimental boat is managed and sailed by a group of naval architects, engineers, software developers and sailors dedicated to test the first platform of its kind built specifically for kite propulsion.

This research project shows a way to a new mean of propulsion with a great future and we are delighted to know that our sensors help this enthousiastic team to progress.

CV7-V high speed ultrasonic wind sensor.

The team has used many sensors to measure instant wind and log wind.
Jamie Schulte recently declared:

“We have used many anemometers, and the CV7-C is the best for our application. It has greatly improved our ability to measure the performance of our kiteboats”.
