Alec,

congrats on the 6.0! I too had the same question and after trying tons of different things, I am planning to order a larger (15") masthead wind indicator - should be in relatively clean air up there (if my eyesight holds). I've tried taping other indicators and all sorts of stuff everywhere on the boat but could never get a good read. The foil is just too close to the hulls and the sails to get any undisturbed air.



P.S. - go to Blockbuster video and ask if they have any trashed VHS cassett tapes - chances are they do and will give them to you for free. Use that stuff for wind indicators.
