A 381 mm | 15 inch parallel ruler used to transfer a bearing parallel across a nautical chart, for example from the compass rose to your plotted position. The milled acrylic rulers are connected by solid brass arms and a handle, which gives the ruler heft and a warm glow on the chart table. The degree scale assists in transferring bearings; a protective sleeve is included.

Storm glass in a polished brass cylinder approximately 165 mm | 6.5 inches high, containing a liquid in which crystals form and change shape. The glass can stand freely or be mounted on the wall with the included mounting accessories. Supplied in a lined black gift box, making it ready to give.

A parallel ruler consists of two rulers that remain parallel via hinged arms, allowing you to shift a heading across a nautical chart without the angle changing. This 304.8 mm | 12-inch version features milled acrylic rulers with aluminum arms and a handle, as well as a protractor scale for transferring headings onto a paper nautical chart. A handy size that also fits on a cramped chart table, supplied with a protective sleeve.

A compact storm glass: a glass tube containing liquid in which crystals form, creating a unique pattern every time. The end pieces are made of solid brass with a brushed finish, which is less shiny than polished brass and therefore has a subtle look. With the included reference card, you can identify the different crystal formations, for those who want to not only look at the glass but also read it.

This classic navigation divider with brass handles opens and closes with one hand, leaving your other hand free for the chart or parallel ruler. The tapered shape and polished stainless steel points ensure precise measuring on the nautical chart. At 8 inches (203 mm), you have more range on large charts.

A straight brass navigation compass with polished stainless steel points, for measuring distances and plotting courses on a nautical chart. The tension is adjustable, so the legs move with exactly the amount of resistance you prefer and do not shift on their own. At 8 inches (203 mm), it provides greater reach on large charts, and its sleek design also makes it a handsome desk accessory.

A quartz ship's clock with a white dial and black Arabic numerals, built for locations with moisture and salt in the air. The housing has an ultra-hard, maintenance-free brass or chrome coating, a sealing ring behind the glass makes it splash-proof, and it hangs on the wall without visible screws. The Endurance 085 has an 85 mm dial in a 105 mm housing, for the boat, the camper, or the seaside home.

This aneroid barometer measures atmospheric pressure without liquid or electricity and translates pressure differences into a pointer that shows weather changes before you notice them outside. The open dial displays inches and millibars and is fully adjustable via the front porthole bezel, housed in a splash-proof brass or chrome casing. The Endurance II 115 features a 102 mm dial in a 152 mm case.

This aneroid barometer measures atmospheric pressure without liquid or power and translates pressure differences into a needle that shows weather changes before you notice them outside. The open dial displays inches and millibars and is fully adjustable via the front porthole bezel, set in a splash-proof brass or chrome casing. The Endurance II 135 features a 127 mm dial in a 178 mm housing.

Thermometer and hygrometer in one brass instrument: on the left, the temperature in Celsius and Fahrenheit; on the right, the relative humidity, with a comfort zone indicating when the indoor climate is optimal. Whether on board, in a holiday home, or in a bedroom, you can easily see when ventilation is needed to prevent condensation and mold. The Endurance II 105 features an 81 mm dial in a 121 mm housing, with a porthole-style bezel that swings open from the front.

The Endurance II is a quartz ship's clock with a bezel that swings open like a porthole, allowing you to set the time or change the battery while the clock remains on the wall. Behind the glass is a white dial with black Arabic numerals and a second hand, set in a brass or chrome housing with a maintenance-free, scratch-resistant coating. The Endurance II 135 features a 127 mm dial in a 178 mm housing.

The CHE-0078 is a professional compass for mounting on the wheelhouse ceiling, suitable for coastal vessels, workboats, and large yachts. The 125 mm flat card has 1° graduations, rotates on a hardened steel pivot with a sapphire bearing, and is illuminated at 12–24 V. B+C correctors are built-in; quadrantal correctors for steel hulls are optional.

The C20-00137 is a class A steering compass on a bracket made of seawater-resistant aluminum, featuring a 125 mm card with 1° graduations that also allows for taking bearings. It complies with MED (Wheelmark), USCG, and UK MER standards, includes quadrantal correctors for steel hulls, and is ready for an NMEA 0183 sensor to drive repeaters, heading alarms, and navigation equipment. Installation via deck stand, on deck, bulkhead, or panel.

The C20-00130 is a compact reflector compass for medium-sized commercial vessels, fishing vessels, workboats, and offshore applications, intended for areas where space is limited. The set consists of a 125 mm card in a compass housing made of seawater-resistant aluminum, with built-in B+C compensation, periscope, main and emergency lighting, and a protective cover. It is fully sealed for outdoor installation in accordance with IEC 60945 and is prepared for an NMEA 0183 sensor.

The C20-00128 is a Class A compass in a seawater-resistant aluminum binnacle, suitable for use as a table compass or, with the C20-00135 periscope, as a reflector compass. The 125 mm card features 1° graduations and a directional error of less than 0.5°, and includes quadrantal correctors for steel hulls. Designed for mid-sized commercial vessels, fishing boats, workboats, and yachts, it comes with a waterproof fabric cover and is prepared for an NMEA 0183 sensor.

Compass adjusters use it to determine deviation by comparing the compass heading with the azimuth of the sun or a known bearing. The 125 mm card with 1° graduations is gimbal-mounted in a natural wood plywood box.
