10-5-1 Selecting a boat speed sensor
The fuel calculations can use boat speeds from
the GPS, or from a paddlewheel sensor or pitot
sensor if these optional sensors are installed:
Paddlewheel and pitot sensors measure the
speed through the water; GPS speed is speed
over ground; these sensors can give different
values for Range, Economy and the fuel
consumption curves (see section 10-5-2).
A pitot sensor is more accurate than a
paddlewheel sensor at high speeds but is
not accurate at low speeds. A paddlewheel
sensor is more accurate than a pitot sensor at
low speeds.
