102B/H is a high stability, bulkhead-mounted compass designed for sailboats and yachtsmen that demand absolute accuracy, a steady card in all conditions and heeling angles. This compass is suitable for sailing boats, motor sailing vessels and larger motor yachts.
The compass permits up to 45° heeling and unlimited tilting fore and aft. 102B/H has a 100 mm capsule, gimballed cradle and direct reading scale on the vertical edge.
With the front heeling scale you can easily keep track of the heeling angle. The compass also features built-in red illumination that makes night navigation easier. The gimballed lubber lines stay vertical even if the boat is heeling (max 45°). The two extra lubber lines at 45° offset permit reading from the rail or an off steering position mounting.
