| What type of mounting do I need...? Where will the compass be mounted? There is a Silva compass for every mounting need. In the bulkhead, on the dashboard, on the headlining, on the mast etc. All models are designed so that no unnecessary drilling is needed. Why do I need a compensator? We strongly recommend the use of a compensator, and not only in steel boats. Almost all models can be supplied with a built-in compensator to avoid magnetic disturbances. Such disturbances will be found on any boat, the source varies from loudspeakers to the radio, engine, wipers, electronic instruments (not NX2) and other metallic components. Remember that the distance to the source is more critical than its strength. |
