Our latest OH CRAP moment hit us when a violent squall appeared out of nowhere in the darkness smashing our boat from the complete opposite wind direction, tearing our mainsail free of the boom allowing it to flap crazily amongst the rigging in the middle of a busy shipping lane. In treacherous conditions on deck, it had to be secured fast before it tore itself to pieces.

Most sailing yachts are made of fiberglass, so the boat itself doesn’t cause compass deviation like steel ships do. But your compass can still be affected by electronics, wiring, engines, and even mobile phones on board. In this short video, we explain: • What compass deviation really is • Why fiberglass boats still have deviation • How electronics can disturb your compass • Why keeping devices away from the compass matters A must-know navigation tip for beginner and intermediate sailors. 👍 Follow for more quick sailing theory and navigation tips. #Sailing #Navigation #Compass #Deviation #SailingTheory #LearnToSail #Sailboat #Yachting #SailingShorts #Nautical
