WHY CHOOSE A CONTEST COMPASS?

• The world-famous Plastimo crisp red card and the 5° graduation make reading very easy, even from afar. Or, for a change, why not choose the yellow card with navy contrasted graduations, which also offers the legendary legibility of a Contest card.
• The cone-shaped card features horizontal and vertical graduations, thus allowing both readings (except for Contest 130), thanks to the lubber lines situated on either sides of the card
• Double reading card, from cockpit and cabin (on Contest 101)
• Clearance of card : 45° when heeling, 35° when pitching
• 2 lubber lines situated at 45° on either side of the main lubber line, eliminate any risk of parallax error when reading from the side
• All Contest compass feature a heelmeter
• Anti-theft mounting as the compass is bolted through the bulkhead with 4 threaded rods and bolts
• A special diaphragm allows for the expansion and contraction of the fluid and prevents the formation of bubbles

Also supplied as standard

• 12Vdc lighting, corrosionproof (except for Offshore 75 models). Lifetime of bulbs: around 5000 hours.
• Compensation (on Contest 130)
• Protective cover
• Adhesive template for easy drilling and installation.
