Heel angle (along with Fore and Aft Trim angle) is used by
the h2000 Main Processor to correct Wind data, and is a
useful option that improves the accuracy of some of the
calculated functions. Heel can be used to give an indication
of the wind pressure when abnormal shear or gradient is
affecting the true wind speed. It can also be checked when
going upwind to ensure that the boat is not sailed over the
optimum heel angle.
