You can never have too much Nav gear !

And a good Compass Adjuster could have sorted it but that compass doesn't look capable of correction. Oh dear!

looks like my old boat that i used to take customers out on. actually, we had every major mfg on it for demo purposes. we did have 2 extra batteries. We had a 60 ft betram for the radar demo.

Looks like a Shetland 570 to me, which was my first ever boat and is what got me hooked and poor, very very poor
