Despite the advent of electronic navigation, the compass remains
the cornerstone of any navigation system. Only by coordinating the
use of electronic and magnetic navigation can boaters achieve
optimal navigation safety, efficiency and effectiveness.
The Ritchie Explorer B-51 Bracket Mount Boat Compass provides
real-time heading and straight line steering. So whether your boat
is dead in the water, on a plane or moving slowly against an
outgoing tide, the compass gives the boat heading. And what's more,
straight line steering helps you avoid steering a serpentine path
when steering by the compass heading. By using this compass with
your GPS, you can optimise performance, fuel efficiency and
safety.
