Do you have an autopilot? If so, you may already have heading info on the network.

My cheapskate solution - my iPhone in a RAM mount running iRegatta with a long charging cable worked great (except for the text messages that popped up down the Bay). It was replaced with a used plotter from a fellow C&Cer. I have ST60 gauges for wind, speed and depth over the companionway, but none display heading. They are networked to my plotter. I don't want to spend for a TackTick or Prostart. I know I can go to the phone and solar charger again, but is there a better solution? I've looked for a waterproof digital compass, but I'm coming up empty. -- Joel 301 541 8551 [https://ipmcdn.avast.com/images/icons/icon-envelope-tick-green-avg-v1.png]<http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Virus-free. www.avg.com<http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail>
