The Ritchie F-50W Explorer is a flush-mount compass built around a 2 3/4-inch direct-reading dial, sized to fit a 3.75-inch mounting hole for boats without room for a full-size Voyager or Helmsman.
Internal green night illumination keeps the dial readable after dark, and built-in compensators handle local deviation adjustment right at install. A scientifically matched sapphire jewel and hardened steel pivot keep the movement smooth, backed by powerful DirectiveForce magnets for a fast heading lock.
A movable sun shield helps with readability at an angle, and high-temperature composite construction stands up to a hot, exposed helm. It’s 100% repairable and comes with Ritchie’s exclusive 5-year warranty, in white. Explore more marine compasses.
