Line up a headland or a navigation light, read the bearing off the scale superimposed on the view, and hold the target the whole time. Because the compass floats in fluid it settles quickly as the boat moves, and the illumination runs off a single CR1225 battery so it is ready when you need it at night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the compass sits the same 7x50 marine optic that makes the Navigator worth carrying. The 7.1 mm exit pupil matches a dark-adapted eye for bright low-light views, and Steiner-Auto-Focus keeps everything from about 66 ft to the horizon sharp once you set the diopters, with no center wheel to chase when a contact appears. The chassis is Makrolon polycarbonate on floating prism bearings, wrapped in NBR rubber armor, nitrogen-sealed against fog and waterproof to 5 m, with a floating strap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch5 id=\"key-features\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated bearing compass:\u003c\/strong\u003e HD-stabilized, fluid-damped, and illuminated, with the bearing scale shown in the view so you can take and hold a heading without lowering the glass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e50 mm low-light optics:\u003c\/strong\u003e a 7.1 mm exit pupil for bright views at dawn, dusk, and night, when navigation matters most.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteiner-Auto-Focus:\u003c\/strong\u003e set the diopters once, sharp from about 66 ft to infinity, nothing to adjust in the moment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSealed for the sea:\u003c\/strong\u003e Makrolon body on floating prism bearings, NBR armor, nitrogen fill, 5 m waterproofing, and a floating strap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch5 id=\"who-it-s-for\"\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoastal and offshore navigators\u003c\/strong\u003e who work in low light and want a compass reading without taking their eyes off the mark.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSkippers who pilot by bearings,\u003c\/strong\u003e where the in-view compass turns a two-step job into one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne point worth setting straight: the compass is stabilized, but the optics are not image-stabilized, so like any binocular the view moves with the boat.
