Hello all,
I have been trying to source a replacement for the compass on a sail training vessel I work with sometimes. It is a 60 foot steel boat and currently has a "Sea-Master type T-180 II F". It is a short binnacle that sits on top of the steering pedestal. Most of what I have found so far are either little "yachty" ones, or full sized big ship binnacles. Ritchie is the best I have found so far, but I would like to cast a wider net. Does anyone have any recommendations? or know a list of active manufactures?
Thanks
Colin
