$103 from Amazon, free shipping and no sales tax. I know it fits all Valley kayaks, no idea bout Tempest, but others seem to write above that it fits. Enjoy!

Will the V-527 and the Brunton
be ok to store in sub-freezing tempertures? Also, can anyone provide any comparison info between these 2 compasses? Visibility, accuracy, durability?



Thanks, Art
