I can think of four compasses each with a dedicated
purpose, that I'd want on an ocan going yacht.

What are they?

Nav station ===Correct
Telltale, over skipper's bunk ===Correct

#3 would be a below decks compass.

Also, as variants, compass binoculars, electronics that can feed several
stations, etc. I keep an old army compass for going ashore on foggy days,
but lately I've used a small gps for that purpose. (Its embarrassing when
you can't find your boat at night ...)

And, of course, the ocean yacht needs a compass in the liferaft.

I lumped these two together-- dinghy compass.

2 points to you Jeff, and although CM beat you to two of them,
I'll give you two more points for answering the entire question perfectly.
