A real sailor would not have them in a case displayed like trophies.

That's a Pelican waterproof floating case. It's not for storing the items on
board, but in between sails so they can be kept dry and safe and transported
easily. I take care of my electronics!

Since you don't bother taking the cover off your compass
or the cover off your mainsail so you don't wear either
of them out, why bother lugging your little toy box full
of lamer instruments around. All you're gonna do with it
anyway is prop it up on the kitchen table and take pictures
of it.

You're not impressing anybody. You're just becoming
more of a laughing stock.
