Mariner
Suunto Mariner wristop computer
is a compact instrument which offers a number of useful functions to every motor
boater and sailor. The Mariner features an accurate calendar watch with dual
time, an electronic compass, a barometer as well as a sailing timer especially
designed to meet the timing function requirements before and during a tough
race.
The sailing timer allows the user to choose the countdown period to the start
from 120 minutes to 60 minutes at ten-minute intervals, from 60 to 15 minutes at
five-minute intervals and from 15 to 1 minute at one-minute intervals, depending
on what signals are given in that particular race. The user can at any time
adjust the countdown timer to the closest full minute: very useful for example
when checking the 5-minute signal. A beep which is heard first every 10 minutes
down to 60 minutes, then every minute and every 10 seconds during the last
minute, alerts the user to the up-coming start. The last 10 seconds an audible
signal is heard every second.
When the countdown is completed, a stopwatch will automatically start running.
The range of the stopwatch is 120 hours, i.e. five days. Fifty way point times
can be stored in memory for later analysis. The sailing timer has been developed
together with some of the top sailors in the world, with experience from the
Whitbread Around the World Race to the World Championships.
The electronic compass is a great tool for direction taking for any boater. It
shows you your bearing and cardinal or half-cardinal point, a North-South arrow,
and features a bearing tracking function which displays locked bearing, actual
bearing and the difference between the two. Mariner also allows for declination
adjustment. The rotatable bezel ring with a ratchet at every five degrees is
especially useful when memorizing wind direction before the start of a sailing
race.
The barometer function of the Mariner keeps the user one step ahead of the
storm. In addition to current barometric pressure and temperature, Mariner gives
pressure related data for the past four days.
The calendar watch of the Mariner is pre-programmed to the year 2089, has 3
daily alarms, a regular stopwatch and countdown timer. In addition, Mariner also
features dual time. No matter what sea you're sailing, Mariner is always on
watch! Other features include the same easy-to-use logic as in the Vector, a
large display with big numerals, an electroluminescent backlight as well as a
user-replaceable battery.

..."Have you checked the battery?" I took the watch elsewhere!"
