Bernie Posted March 29, 2011 Report Posted March 29, 2011 I use the compass more than the GPS. Get a good one too, not one that spins in circles when hitting waves. I don't trust my GPS. Especially when the chart doesn't show some islands on Nipissing. Tach and voltmeter most important gauges.
irishfield Posted March 29, 2011 Report Posted March 29, 2011 I will follow anything I need at times. Ask DanC how I got to Marathon sometime...

Fisherman Posted March 29, 2011 Report Posted March 29, 2011 For those that poopoo the compass, ya better read the new boating regs. I look over the back of my boat, water is whizzing out of the whizzer hole, I look at my gas tank and see a fuel gauge, I look at my GPS and it tells me how fast I'm going. I look at my oil light and it tells me there's acceptable pressure.
