- Type 100 Series (100mm card – versatile and popular for most yachts/powerboats: available in bulkhead, bracket, and flush mount.
- Type 125 Series (larger 125mm card for superior readability – ideal for bigger vessels or long-distance cruising: bulkhead, flush, and binnacle options)
- Type 70 Series (compact 70mm card – front-reading with yellow lubber line, great for smaller yachts, dinghies, or as secondary compasses: bulkhead and bracket variants)
These compasses feature stable cards (graduated every 5°), excellent night illumination (LED or bulb), gimballed or damped systems for heeling/vibration resistance, and easy installation — perfect for primary steering, cockpit placement, or wheelhouse setups on leisure and racing craft.
