Davis Instruments Hand Bearing Compass

While GPS units can't be beat for accurate navigation, they are subject to breakdown, and many cannot give bearing to a visual target. Good seamanship dictates that you have a dependable compass on board for open water sailing. The Davis Instruments model #211 features non corrosive plastic construction, is accurate, rugged, and floats.

Available for $29.95 at West Marine, an LED lighted model #215 is also available for $37.95. (Specify West Marine part #108241 for non lighted, or #108258 for the lighted.).
