Silva - 58 Kayak Compass
Silva 58 Kayak Compass
Checking your heading mid-paddle without dropping your gaze from the horizon or releasing your grip on the paddle is exactly how a kayak compass should work, and the Silva 58 is designed specifically around that requirement.
The rubber strap and clip attachment system is the standout feature for sea kayakers and touring paddlers. It fixes directly to your deck lines without drilling, keeps the compass positioned right in front of you for an easy line-of-sight read, and removes cleanly when not needed. At 115 grams with a compact 85 x 55 x 72 mm footprint, it sits low on the deck without interfering with gear or paddle strokes. The cone-style card handles a 20-degree roll and pitch heeling angle, staying readable through the kind of chop and swell that Canadian coastal and Great Lakes paddlers regularly encounter.
Fully waterproof with scratch-resistant glass, the Silva 58 is built to handle submersion, spray, and the general abuse of open water paddling without losing accuracy or legibility. Available in both magnetic north and magnetic south variants to suit paddlers across the northern and southern hemispheres.
