"The KB-14 is a specialized optical sighting compass, primarily made for use by sailing enthusiasts, land or cave surveyors, and others who require a compass capable of taking extremely precise bearings (to fractions of a degree) to various targets.

As a personal sailing or hand-bearing compass the Suunto works well, with a stable dial that can take accurate bearings to shore targets even in a rocking kayak or canoe."

"This is the best and most convenient compass I have ever used. It is incredibly easy to get precise measurments even in poor lighting. It mounts on a standard camera tripod or monopod if you want more stability.

The only thing you need to be aware of when ordering one is that the internal mechanism must be "balanced" for different latitude (magnetic inclination) zones."
