Silva 125 B/H Compass

Silva is synonymous in the manufacturing of marine compasses. The Silva quality is second to none.

Durability - The capsule bowl, made from clear and scratch-resistant acrylic, ensures excellent readability and lasts over time.

Low Friction - The combination of a sapphire jewel bearing and a hardened steel pivot minimises friction, which in turn gives rapid and accurate movements.

Perfect Dampening - The no-spin compass car is designed for perfect dampening and exact reading.

Accurate Reading - The gimballed suspension system enables accurate reading and undisturbed functionality - even when the boat is exposed to rough seas.

The Silva 125B/H is a bulkhead-mounted compass designed for sailboats and sailors that demand absolute accuracy, a steady card in all conditions and heeling angles.

A main steering scale on the horizontal part and direct reading on the vertical edge make it ideal for boats with a sitting or a standing helmsman. With the front heeling scale you can easily keep track of the heeling angle.

The compass also features built-in illumination that makes night navigation easier.

Three lubber lines permits reading from the rail or from a place at the side of the steering position.
