However, my greatest recommendation is for a pair of binoculars with a
built-in compass. *I have one, and I love it.


No, not a backup for the GPS. I'll use it as a tool for taking
bearings on passing boats-- to see how we are moving relative to one
another. Also, to take bearings of starting lines in races for the
favored end start, etc.


Then I recommend the binos with the built-in compass. I think a hand
held compass would be to inaccurate for these purposes.

You're talking to a guy who doesn't sail and certainly doesn't race,
apparently.


**** off, asshole. I sail and race much more than you. And I have a
wall full of trophies to prove it.
