Compass
The compass is installed on each boat to aid in navigation. A magnetic compass is often deflected by iron,
magnets, or electrical current from nearby wiring. The compass must adjusted to compensate for these
influences.
Only a qualified technician should perform compass adjusting/compensation. Since it is seldom possible to
correct compass deviation to zero, a deviation card is created to indicate the correct heading that must be
utilized when navigating by compass. Keep this card near the helm and refer to it as necessary.
The actual size and location of the compass varies from model to model.
