I've purchased such a device for about $18 Cdn - it came with appropriate bungie cords, and a shape that allowed for wind/water to pass under (about 1"). It can be drilled through easily to mount the compass, although it is tough yet somewhat flexible plastic to adjust to the contours of the deck. I can also easily remove it from my kayak for safe keeping or traveling. Why all the work for something so inexpensive to purchase? I seem to recall that Perception sells such a device. You used to be able to see something at http://www.kayaker.com/products/index.html It is just $12 US. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Nov 03 1998 - 16:29:57 PST
