PLASTIMO Offshore Bracket Mount Boat Compass – 95 White is a dependable marine compass designed for powerboats measuring 6 to 10 metres (19 to 33 feet). Its white housing, black flat compass card and practical bracket-mount design make it suitable for helm stations, steering consoles and dashboards where a flush installation is not preferred. The compass provides a clear, direct heading reference, helping the helmsman maintain course during coastal cruising, recreational boating, harbour manoeuvring and general powerboat navigation.

The black flat card has an apparent diameter of 81 mm and is graduated every 5°, with heading numerals displayed every 30° for quick course recognition. A contrasting red lubber line provides an immediate reference point when reading the vessel’s heading. The card is engineered for good legibility in changing weather and light conditions, while the scratch-resistant dome protects the visible compass display. The components are UV-treated to support continued use in exposed marine environments.

This surface mount compass uses a broad, sturdy bracket that can be installed on a horizontal or inclined dashboard. The installation angle can be selected to suit the helm layout, provided that the compass and card assembly remain horizontal during operation. Its clip-plate arrangement also allows the compass to be removed when necessary. This installation flexibility makes it useful for new boat builds, navigation equipment upgrades, and replacement projects where dashboard space or access prevents conventional flush mounting.

Powerboat movement, engine vibration, and repeated hull pounding can make an ordinary compass card difficult to read. The PLASTIMO Offshore 95 addresses this with its unique Vibration Absorber system, which helps maintain card stability while the vessel is underway. The broad bracket base further assists in managing vibration at the mounting point, giving the operator a steadier visual reference when checking direction.

For low-light and night-time operation, the marine compass includes 12–24V LED lighting. The illumination is distributed across the display to make the compass card easier to read without requiring a separate light directed at the instrument. This dual-voltage compatibility allows the compass to integrate with common 12V or 24V onboard electrical systems, subject to correct installation and connection.

The compass incorporates a one-piece moulded flange and bowl and a Viton® diaphragm. The diaphragm accommodates changes in compass-fluid volume caused by variations in temperature and atmospheric pressure, helping prevent the formation of bubbles. Compensation is supplied as standard and can be adjusted externally on the bracket-mounted version without opening the compass. The model is ISO 613 compliant and corresponds to current product reference 65739, replacing previous part number 55391. It is a practical choice for buyers seeking a white Plastimo compass with a black flat card, illuminated display, and versatile bracket installation.
