Hey, Doug...when someone refers to a handheld compass on a SAILBOAT,
they're usually NOT refering to this:

They mean THIS:

Can Doug the Trawler Boy? I think you need to look to Doug for all your
compass info!

Heh no reason to be so darned difficult.... I asked a simple question. I'll
explain what I think are the primary differences...

Dampening with mineral spirits
Lubbers Line
bearing gradation
Overall construction

Can you think of anything else?

After Doug didn't know what kind of hand held compass is found on a
sailboat, I don't see why you had to ruin this thread. You should have
let HIM answer, even though he doesn't carry a bearing compass by his
own admission. I prefer to use the ones in my Fuji's, but I also have
the Davis (which has poor degree markings) and the excellent Weems and
Plath.

Actually, it was Mooron's "drivel." Good work, Martin! You seem to
enjoy stepping on the wrong end of the rake each day.

Gee Bob I'm hurt. Do actually suppose that anyone in this group is
impressed by you puerile insults? I'd pity you but your too contemptible
for even that. Save the wear on those pudgy dactyls, I don't think I'll
bother to truck with you anymore, too boring.

If you break it down to absolute basics you're right, they are the same.

Not if you put one of them too close to the binnacle!

But, the other one will be ok.

Clearly, you have a lot of experience with being a lesbian. You're an

You sure do have a lot of hate Mooron. I feel sorry for you. Keep
ranting. It's what we're all expecting.

Look Man... I just loathe that back stabbing little Weasel.
Tell you what Bob...... stop Boat trolling, insulting Doug, Scotty et

all Ganz needed was the slightest nudge to start him careening down the
slope of mental instability. I don't have to respond to any further posts

BTW... do you have an emergency tiller on your new vessel?

Like I said, he's got a lot of hate and can't get rid of it... it doesn't
matter what you do Bob. Mooron has to express his anger somehow.

Why?... wanna see Ganzy totally lose it and report me again?

Like I said Bob...... you shouldn't try and censure me when you can't
censor yourself. I didn't even address Ganz on any primary posts until he
was stupid enough to reply to one of my posts not directed at him. Why
doesn't Gayanzy just KF me? What is the matter with that psycho nutbar
anyway?

Well I got notice I have to move my boat tomorrow, I guess the parking lot
of the bar is becoming a popular place. The have doubled the storage for
this year. It's up to 12 boats now. Oh well..... now I can start work on
the enclosure for winter work during my lay-off! :-)

Bwaahahaha... now you're claiming that you didn't address me directly.
That's a hoot. Why would I want to killfile you? It's too much fun watching
