Deine Fragen / Unsere Antworte

What material should a marine compass be made of so that it doesn't rust on board?
Brass and stainless steel are the proven materials for maritime use. Die-cast zinc models are cheaper, but corrode quickly if repeatedly exposed to moisture.
Do I need a divider or a compass with a pencil attachment for chart work?
For simply picking up and transferring distances, a divider is perfectly sufficient. You only need the pencil attachment if you want to draw bearing circles or distances directly on the chart.
How do I ensure that the joint of my marine compass doesn't give way during measurement?
The joint must be adjustable with noticeable resistance, but not stiff. On many models, the friction can be adjusted via an adjusting screw on the joint – check this before buying or read the product description accordingly.
Can compass points damage the chart?
Very sharp steel points leave small punctures when repeatedly used, which is annoying with expensive original charts. Some marine compasses have slightly rounded points that protect the chart and still grip cleanly – a good compromise for daily use.
