Q:

Where should a boat compass be mounted?

A) near magnet B) near iron
C) away from electrical wiring D) All the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) away from electrical wiring

Explanation:

A compass, which is used to assist in navigation, is an instrument that shows magnetic north. You must apply a correction to determine the direction of true north. The ability to steer a boat by a compass is useful if land is out of sight, visibility is reduced, or the boat operator is disoriented.

 

Mount a boat compass away from iron, magnets, and electrical wiring and equipment.
