Re: Dumb question - what's this Raymarine thing on my old boat?
There's no such thing as a dumb question. It's only dumb if you keep asking it.
That is a Raymarine autopilot compass. You need it if you still have an autopilot. Also keep anything metal away from it. A client of mine had his toolbox resting on a floorboard above one and his autopilot could not keep course.
Cheers

Thank you very much! I am going through the old girl and getting rid of stuff. I will leave that!

Careful! This is a time bomb and I collect them.
Remove it immediately and send it to me to difuse it.
