Read your boat's heading from a compact surface-mounted display with the white Ritchie S-53W Explorer compass. Its low-profile body houses a direct-reading dial, and the compass module releases at the push of a button for storage and security.

Key features

  • The direct-reading dial and internal green lighting help you check headings by day or at night.
  • Push-button removal lets you take the compass module away for storage.
  • Built-in compensators allow adjustment for deviation.
  • DirectiveForce magnets help the compass settle quickly on a heading.
  • A movable sun shield lets you adjust shade over the dial.
  • Fully repairable construction allows the compass to be serviced.
