Magnetic Compass Adjustment

MARINA Accreditation No. 0342748

In maritime navigation, accuracy is non-negotiable. Despite advancements in electronic navigation systems, the magnetic compass remains an indispensable backup—a fundamental tool required by maritime safety standards. Keeping it properly adjusted is essential not only for safe navigation but also for regulatory compliance.

Why Compass Adjustment Matters

Magnetic compasses are influenced by the vessel’s structure, onboard equipment, and surrounding magnetic fields. These factors can create deviation errors, which—if unchecked—lead to inaccurate headings and compromised navigation. Regular adjustment is therefore vital to ensure precision and confidence at sea.
