Compass Recess Location
In Response To: Compass Recess *Pic* (Ross Leidy)
Ross,
One caveat about the recessed compass: I'd suggest that you mount it within easy arm's reach, as VCP does. I've had the recess on my Nordkapp fill partially with sand (and even with snow and slush once), obscuring the compass. If it was mounted far forward like some people like to do, the only way to clear it would be to roll the boat. I prefer to avoid doing that since the ocean temp around here is currently 35-38 degrees.
If you're considering a knee tube in the cockpit, perhaps your could recess the compass into it?
