Hand - Bearing Compasses
A hand-bearing compass or sighting compass is a compact compass designed for handheld use and fitted with a sighting device to accurately determine locations or calculate bearings. It is therefore a crucial piece of kit for anyone planning to go sailing and is central to all basic navigational techniques. Here at Mailspeed Marine we stock a wide range of great value sighting compasses and compass mounts to make sure you always stay on track. Many of our hand-bearing compasses, such as the Plastimo Iris compass, feature battery backlights or photo-luminescent dials to allow for use at night time. The Silva compass is also a popular choice as it is designed for use both as a steering compass (when in its mount) and as a sighting compass for quick measurements in the field.
