There's a slight angle to the bulkhead of nearly everyone's house. It is about 5 degrees off vertical on mine, and it appears and works fine. I think the angles are 15 degrees as specified in the instructions. I'd like to thank Warren Miller for his contributions to this page
Yes, this compass can be used outside on your sailboat, as it is waterproof.

He bought it for his 22' Pathfinder CC as a birthday present. The size of this piece was completely unknown to me. With only a 4 inch hole saw, this is set on his console perfectly. It's rather large, but otherwise the size is very appropriate. My friend says that it is the most beautiful compass she has Blue LEDs light up at night to match the blue of the lights. I would purchase this item again, but maybe a sailboat instead. The owner was thrilled to receive this on board his boat and is thrilled to have it.
In order to install the Venture, I used a drum cutter cut to 4 1/2" to fit the existing hole cut of 4". This hole was cut to the right size and the Venture fits perfectly into it. There is a compass template included to drill the 4 holes required for installation of the Venture with non-invasive mechanisms I really like it. The mounting of the metal (plastic) studs and the final install went smoothly. The compass is hard to miss at a glance. A tight fit is achieved by the cover. It is easy to remove the cover simply by pulling on the small drawstring attached to the plastic tab on the cover. As long as you remember to always use the drawstring to pull off the cover, there will be no issue. I like the fit of the cover!.
Excellent fit, and thanks for providing the tiltometer for free as well.
I like the way it looks and how well lit it is. It comes with a weather cover that makes it an excellent addition. Despite the fact that the finish on the cover's "pull bead" won't hold up even in mild weather, the water based stain won't permanently stain the gel coat, but may stain the.
This compass has a great look and is very easy With old eyes it is easy to read This replacement for an older compass that leaked is quite easy to read.
There are two compass needles on top. The system is functioning correctly. Surely that is all there is.
The savings are great and the price is great.
installation of the compass was easy and the device worked as described. The initial tests appear to be positive, but I have not tested it completely yet.
