Silva Marine Quality

Each Silva marine compass is precision-built for durability and long-term accuracy. The 100P features a clear, scratch-resistant capsule made of high-grade acrylic for superior readability. Its sapphire bearing and steel pivot reduce friction, ensuring quick, precise responses to directional changes—even in rough seas or strong wind conditions.

Installation & Mounting

The Silva 100P can be mast-mounted or bulkhead-mounted, making it ideal for sailboats and yachts with limited space. Mount away from magnetic interference and align parallel to the vessel’s keel for maximum accuracy. Mounting hardware and detailed instructions are included.

Pro Tip

For the most accurate readings, mount your 100P Compass at eye level where it’s visible from your normal steering position. If your vessel heels more than 30°, verify calibration under sail for optimal performance. Always confirm compass deviation using a known heading after installation.
