MINI-CONTEST SAILBOAT COMPASS
Available to order for collect — supplier, typically 2–10 business days
The Mini-Contest Plastimo compass is suitable for sailboats up to 9m in length and features legendary accuracy and legibility of the Contest card, with a smaller footprint. The ‘vibration absorber’ system maintains the compass’ accuracy in all conditions at any speed and the integrated LED bulb within the bowl provides an even spread of illumination. Plastimo compasses feature a fully waterproof diaphragm that has extreme expansion and retraction capacity. This enables it to compensate the fluctuations in fluid volume caused by the differences in temperature and atmospheric pressure. Tested in the most extreme of conditions, these compasses will not leak or develop bubbles. Mounted flush to a flat vertical bulkhead or on the mast (with optional mast mounting kit - sold separately). Standard bulkhead thickness 40mm but will suit thick or double bulkheads with additional screws on both sides of the bulkhead.
