Instrument for the Measurement of the Fore and Aft Tilt of Otterboards
62 / 37
Abstract
A portable self contained instrument has been designed and
developed for the measurement of the Fore and Aft tilt of otter
boards within the range —22° to + 22° with an accuracy of 1°.
An underwater transducer fitted on the otterboard converts its tilt
into corresponding electrical resistance which is measured in an
ohmmeter on board, both being connected by electric cable.
