Plastimo Offshore 105 Compass – Precision for Powerboats Designed for small to mid-size powerboats (16–29 ft / 5–9 m), the Plastimo Offshore 105 delivers dependable steering excellence where it matters most. The standout conical card with a 91 mm flat card provides exceptionally stable readings at speed and in open water, so you can navigate with confidence even in rough seas. Key features that set this compass apart - Conical card design with 5-degree graduations and heading numerals every 30 degrees delivers quick, accurate readings at a glance, helping you maintain course without distraction. - Built-in 12V lighting ensures clear visibility during night passages or dimly lit decks, so you’re never guessing your heading. - Articulated sliding sun cover reduces glare while staying out of the way when you don’t need it, preserving readability across changing light conditions. - Versatile flush-mount installation: 100 mm cutout hole with a 140 mm surface flange; height above surface 92 mm and depth below surface 42 mm, enabling a clean, unobtrusive fit on most helm consoles or steering positions. - Robust, even under motion: the design prioritizes stability and readability when the boat is moving fast or encountering chop, giving you reliable navigation data when you need it most. - Safety and compliance: approved to SOLAS and EC 96/98 Directive, meeting stringent standards for marine safety equipment. - Practical sourcing: shipped directly from a local supplier for reliable availability and prompt delivery (Part Number 65001J, updated 13.05.22). Why this compass matters for your boat - Readability in motion: the conical card reduces parallax and keeps heading information steady, so you can focus on steering rather than squinting at a blurred dial. - Night and day versatility: the integrated 12V light makes night passages safer, while the glare-reducing sun cover preserves readability in bright sun. - Clean integration: flush-mount design with precise cutouts ensures a sleek helm layout without protruding hardware, leaving space for other instruments and controls. Ideal uses and best-fit scenarios - Powerboats in the 5–9 m range where a compact, stable compass is essential for confident fast-paced navigation. - Helm consoles or steering stations where a flush, low-profile instrument is preferred for a tidy dash. - Boats seeking SOLAS/EC-compliant navigation equipment without compromising helm ergonomics or readability.
