Works for me!
Easy to install, but DO NOT permanently install until you locate the place on the boat/vehicle where the compass will register with the most accuracy. Had difficulty getting it to accurately reflect directions, until I found a spot where the compensators could overcome most vehicle interference. Happy with it now, but it took some time to find "the spot." Maybe installation was a little more difficult as I installed it on my Polaris Crew 500 rather thqn on a boat????????????

takes up no space
Although I have a GPS on board, this is a great back up. And when my GPS is off this compass is always on. It lights up at night, keeping easy to see and read. I have it mounted on my center console so it is always with in view.

As expected - basic
To be used in case of unexpected fog or clouds on a mountain lake. Too small for 'serious' use.

what do you do if it does not stick to the dashboard??
3M double sided tape would work.

Does the vehicle when it is turned on interfere with it's accuracy?
Your vehicle turned on does not interfere with the compass.

we do not do any night boating ,so does it have to be wired to work.
No. The RitchieSport Compass does not have to be wired to work.

Does this have to be wired for night light or is it battery? I am looking for battery. Also want to be able to install with sticky tape not permanent bracket.
Yes. The RitchieSport Compass must be wired to a power source for the night light to work. The bracket is designed to be screwed in place but it could be installed using tape.

Could it be mounted on the console near the gear shift without interference?
Yes. The RitchieSport Compass can be mounted near your gear shift but move it as far away as possible.

Exactly how much space from electronics are we talking. Some of the reviews state they mounted on the dash That has to be right NEXT to electronics!! I have a Lowrance fish finder (no gps) is this going to cause a problem?
The Ritchie Sport Compass should be at least 8" to 10" away from any electrical item or the compass will not perform properly.

I am looking at something like this for my 20' pontoon boat. Any tips or advice for installation? Is it as easy as locating an open space near the helm and screwing it down?
Hello Scuber, Yes. You just need to leave as much space as you can between the compass and any electronic device. Thank you, Steve
