Mini Contest Compass

Description

Mini Contest Compass

Suitable for sailboats up to 9 metres (30 ft).

To match the new cockpit designs, Plastimo has revamped the Mini Contest, one of its historic most popular compasses. The latest born in the range, the Mini Contest boasts a more modern look and a new conical card for improved reading comfort.

Card:

• Excellent readability whatever the weather conditions and light
• Conical, highly stable, 81mm apparent diameter
• Individually balanced
• Graduation every 5° and compact figures for easy reading

Watertight construction:

• One-piece moulded flange and front dome
• Viton diaphragm with extreme expansion and retraction capacity: compensates the fluctuations in fluid volume caused by differences in temperature and atmospheric pressure, thus preventing the formation of bubbles

Materials:

• All parts fully UV-ray treated
• Scratch resistant dome

Lighting:

• 12V-bulb integrated in the front flange, spreading the illumination evenly over dome and card, and preventing eye strain and fatigue at night
• Easy access to the light bulb from the front of the compass

Mounting:

• Vertical bulkhead mount
• Mini Contest 2 is compatible with Mini Contest drilling Ø
• Fits any bulkhead thickness
• standard thickness (40 mm max): the compass is secured with threaded rods
• thick or double bulkhead: the compass is secured with Parker screws on both sides of the bulkhead
