Why not both? 8^)
I haven't found any pictures that show the compass very well. What I really need is advice on where to mount it. I'm thinking about mounting it just aft of the forward hatch. This should be close enough to see, but leave room for some deck rigging just forward of the cockpit. Hopefully this will be out of the way enough that I don't smack it with the paddle.
The new 12 channel GPS recievers are supposed to be really nice. Anyone have one?
