The Race Compass offers unprecedented ergonomics and visibility.
We are pleased to announce the brand new Sailteck Race Compass has arrived at Ovington. Designed by the makers of the original TackTick compass, this latest edition features a massive dual level display, offering you both heading and countdown at the same time.
The compass is also ultra lightweight with an advanced thermoplastic housing and has been designed to be universally class legal. The large solar panel on the top of the device ensures robust performance in all weathers - power production exceeds device power requirements even when it is raining so you never have to charge it.
The display also features an additional polariser which remixes the orientation of the light, ensuring clear visibility even when viewing with polarised sunglasses.
Available on the Ovington stand at the RYA Dinghy & Watersports Show (February 22nd/23rd) or through our website at ovingtonboats.com/product/sailteck-race-compass
