SILVA tactical compass 103 RE

103RE regatta compass for Laser and other dinghies.

The double scale divided into sectors, green to starboard and red to port, allows you to read your true course starboard-tack and port-tack from the normal position of the helmsman when rappelling. It is no longer necessary to add 45° to the heading value read. The red and green memory arrows prompt you to tack when the value decreases starboard-tack and when it increases port-tack. The upper scale allows you to read the heading downwind or control the position of the starting line.

REGATTA COMPASS

Elite racing models have been developed by the best racers in the world and by Olympic qualifiers. Tactical graduations and quick reading are decisive advantages. The conical rose with alidades on gimbal is equipped with a graduation of course to steer on the horizontal part and a tactical graduation on the vertical part.

Detecting laughs can be the small difference between victory and defeat. Silva's tactical scales are graduated from 0 to 20 and the numbers correspond to port and starboard tack. If the starboard tack graduation is 2, the port tack graduation must be 2. Thus, you only need to remember the number 2. This is an important advantage in triangular courses to sail at a puff rather than following a compass course .
Model designed for fixing on a horizontal support.
