        Needed a backup directional aid for my small boat. This compass fit the bill. Large enough to read easy but not to big that it takes up space.

          Comments about Overton's Overton's Bracket-Mount Compass:

          I purchased this compass for my smaller boat. It is a great fit for the 13' Livingston. Although I don't venture far from shore, the fog sometimes surrounds me and I need this compass to point the way. So far it has been reliable.

            Comments about Overton's Overton's Bracket-Mount Compass:

            I have a 30 foot Pontoon boat in which I travel on the Inland Lakes of Michigan and in the Great Lakes. This compass is easy to read and larger than I anticipated at time of purchase. The quality for the money is excellent. I have seen many lessor compasses in Marina shops that cost much more than this model. I am very satisfied with my purchase from Overton's.

              You do need a compass if you plan to go out further or at night on a larger lake.

                The direction is completely off, it turns the exact opposite way it should
                is there any adjustments that we need to do, other than turning the compensator adjust nobs to the vertical position?

                Is this unit illuminated with battery power, or must it be hot-wired to the boat's circuitry? (I have very little under-dashboard room).
