Hand Bearing Compasses
These are two hand compasses that I used to use. I am getting out of the boating hobby, so I am letting these go.

This first is the bullet-proof Davis Instruments Hand Compass. Simple and rugged. This compass is in excellent condition. This item is $10 US + Shipping.

The second was my primary bearing compass. It's a Vion MiNi 2000 hockey puck compass. This compass is in good condition, the major issue being sun fading of the vinyl cover. This is an excellent compass for taking very accurate hand bearings. This item is $60 US + Shipping.

These items are located in Corpus Christi, Texas.

Re: Hand Bearing Compasses
The Davis compass is sold pending funds.

The MiNi 2000 is still available.

The MiNi 2000 hockey puck compass has a lanyard (string) to allow it to be hung around your neck, so that you'll never be lost and it is still available!

Is the Mini 2000 light source working? How bright is it?

Re: Hand Bearing Compasses
There seems to be very little interest in this item. I think that I will keep it as a memento.
