The Contest 130 Plastimo compass is suitable for sailboats over 9m in length and features a large card with exceptional magnification, providing an unparalleled quality of reading by day or night. The contest 130 remains perfectly legible from a distance of 5m away.

The ‘vibration absorber’ system maintains the compass’ accuracy in all conditions at any speed and the integrated LED bulb within the bowl provides an even spread of illumination.

Plastimo compasses feature a fully waterproof diaphragm that has extreme expansion and retraction capacity. This enables it to compensate the fluctuations in fluid volume caused by the differences in temperature and atmospheric pressure. Tested in the most extreme of conditions, these compasses will not leak or develop bubbles.

The broad and sturdy bracket base can be mounted on any surface, whatever the angle, and is removable instantly.
