I have a  Raymarine C7 plotter on the binnacle within about ½ a foot of the
compass with no particular issues. Built a folding teak  cockpit table/drink
and junk holder with room on top for the plotter.  FYI

Subject: Stus-List Mounting chartplotter near magnetic compass

 

I've been following this forum for over a year - all good stuff!  Now I need
some advice.  I want to mount a small chartplotter (5" or 6" screen) at the
binnacle, which would place it very close to my magnetic compass.  Seems all
the models on the market today - Raymarine, Garmin, Standard Horizon, etc -
require a separation between the two, anywhere from 12" up to 3 ft.  Makes
it rather difficult to accomplish on a 30ft boat.  I couldn't be the first
sailor to face this dilemma, so any ideas or suggestions would be most
welcome.  Thanks!
