    ### Plastimo Contest 130 Marine Compass White/Red Card Bulkhead Mount RWB8072

White Contest 130 for sailboats of 9 metres and over, with a red dual front/top-reading card. Its large magnified display is designed for reading from up to 5 metres away. The Contest family is designed around reading a sailing compass from the cockpit, with model-specific mounting and display arrangements. This exact body and card combination should be checked when replacing an existing instrument. The multiple reference lines and heel-angle indication are features to become familiar with before sailing, while the cover and lighting form part of the practical installation considerations.

### Choosing and using this product

Select the mounting version before comparing colours. Bulkhead angle, available access and the required viewing position all matter when choosing a replacement compass or planning a new installation. Check the specific model's permitted mounting angle and use the current installation template to confirm the opening, footprint and rear clearance. The apparent card diameter is a display measurement, not a cutting guide. Trial the sight line from the cockpit and any other intended viewing position before making permanent changes to the boat. Make sure surrounding hardware will not obstruct the card or prevent use of the protective cover. If a mast bracket is required, verify the separately listed bracket for this exact family. Follow Plastimo's directions for placement away from magnetic interference and for checking or adjusting compensation where applicable. Confirm the lighting requirements against the boat's circuit and leave a serviceable, protected wire route. Learn how the multiple lubber lines and heel-angle display relate to your sailing position before use. Inspect the cover, mount and connections periodically, particularly after moving equipment or adding fittings near the compass.
