It looks to me to be an aviation computer used to compute wind correction angles.

This now on ebay. Anyone? Commercial or one-off? Item number:271213556408 VINTAGE MARINE WAYPOINT NAVIGATOR/PLOTTER Boxed and original This is a nice little maritime item. This manual plotter would have been used to pinpoint positions around the coast. The scroll mechanism sticks sometimes, I have not taken the top off to repair as I don't believe it needs doing, if the buyer were to want to do this it is a simple task to remove the front to get to the inner workings. The compass dial works nicely. ---------------------------------------------------------------- NavList message boards and member settings: www.fer3.com/NavList Members may optionally receive posts by email.
