Compass Placement
Options for placing magnetic compasses
Hard to find a good place ;-(
Somehow we didn't quite sort this out upfront ...
Unfortunately, not a whole lot of good options.
Helm Stations
this would be the traditional place to put it
but the space is a bit tight ...
the traditional space above the hub makes it very hard to use
when steering to compass (it is too low down to be comfortable

it could go somewhere on the top right corner ...
... where the current space for the ipad is.
however, that is only a few cm thick (i believe 3) and the back end of the compass would stick out on the other side where it could be in the way of the winch-handle

... the disk is 150 mm diameter
the compass is 143, he ring would be 158 mm
in terms of sight-line it would be quite good but not as good as on the coach roof

Between power controls and bar
this seems to be the only workable space on the helm stations
where the green cable is right now
would fit, but is not in a comfortable space when helming
from an angle

Cuddy top or beneath
would be nicely in the site line
however, concerned about a line snagging a compass, but perhaps stick it on upside down beneath
the grey pipe is at the center of the sight-line
IN TERMS OF USABILITY, THIS WOULD BE THE BEST SPOT
IN TERMS OF USABILITY, THIS WOULD BE THE BEST SPOT
the compass could possibly put in at an angle, with the
bottom part sticking out underneath the cuddy.
or a pipe could be welded on top so that compass isn't leaning to the side

Beneath the Cuddy
It can't go in the center, because it would be in the way
or it would obstruct the hatch (not shown here)
the right side wall will be obstructed by the door, otherwise it would be perfect.
There are also vents to the engine room left and right of the door , so that won't be good for much either

above the port window might work, this spot can be seen from both helm stations.
the disk shows the location from the backbord staton borderline ok
and closeup
Second Unit for Pilot House
this would be a good option if we have only one helm-station unit
or as a luxury, with two helm-station units
