Compass
The compass is set by the
manufacturer to ensure
its accuracy. If in doubt it
can be zeroed in by using a
nonmagnetic screwdriver to
turn the compensator screws
as recommended. Refer to the
compass manual in the owner’s
information pouch. Also, a
compass can be checked while
underway for variance and
deviation by comparing your heading with a nautical chart. Compass
error is part of the calculation.
