Plastimo Marine Equipment Contest 101 Compass with White Card

Sailboats as from 9 metres (30 ft).
When Plastimo invented the double reading compass, it was a major innovation which allowed the yachtsman to follow his course from the cockpit and the cabin.
The Contest 101 goes a step further : its exclusive mounting possibilities on any bulkhead - whatever the thickness - and its aesthetics allow the Contest 101 to adapt perfectly to today's yachts, both in terms of engineering technique and glamorous design.

• Ideal for 26-40’ (8-12m) sailboats
• Dual-reading compass lets you view your boat’s heading from both the cockpit and the cabin
• Crisp red, yellow, black or white card and 5° graduations are easy to read, up to 15’ (4.6m) away
• Cone-shaped card has both vertical and horizontal graduations for front and top readings
• A 45° card clearance when heeling; 35° when pitching
• 2 lubberlines at 45° each side of the main lubberline eliminate parallax error when reading from the side
• Built-in clinometer is graduated every 5°
• 12V DC lighting built into the upper bezel distributes light precisely on the card; 24V lighting available
• Mounts in any bulkhead to 1.6" (40mm) thick (0-10°) or inclined (10-25°) from vertical
• Watertight, anti-theft installation uses four threaded, sunken plastic rods and bolts, and a back flange for a neat cabin look
• Viton® diaphragm accommodates liquid expansion and prevents bubble formation
• All parts are treated for UV-resistance
• Scratch-resistant dome
• Same footprint and drilling pattern as the Contest 100 for easy upgrades
