I was watching my Catamaran DVD by George Tillard - absolutely fantastic – (http://www.catamaran-sailing-dvd.com/) and many of the F18 sailors use compasses to accurately monitor wind shifts. Do any of you use compasses if so what type and where do you put it? I would have thought it would be difficult to read from the tramp unless you had a large digital display and I'm sure that would cost. Then the question is it really worth the cost I'm sure most like myself just use intuition and surrounding geography to gage a shift in wind.
