True Wind Angle is calculated from Measured Wind Speed, Measured Wind Angle and Boat
Speed, this data is then combined with True Wind correction and heel angle correction values
to create True Wind data. True Wind data is used to back-calculate Apparent Wind data as
shown in the vector triangle below.
