70p
Search on google for either silva or brunton 70p compass, the compass recess in your kayak will take any 70p compass. There are more that will fit.

Hardware ( nuts and bolts ) can be purchased at mcmaster.com, I’d recommend stainless steel bolts and stainless steel locking nuts. Some folks like to dab a bit of marine sealant ( not silicone ) to seal holes.

Thanks for the info and links.

$85 with free shipping sounds like a great deal, thanks.



I was looking at the Ritchie V-527 Slope Mount Kayak Compass but wasn’t sure about fit or quality.

I’ve heard that it neither fits nor works as well as the Brunton. Hearsay, I know, but this IS an internet forum, right? :slight_smile:

Yeah


I “know” the Brunton name. Its only a few bucks more so I’ll stick with what I know.



Thanks.
