To my northern sailors where the temps go below freezing....does anyone
take their compass off the boat over winter? Southern sailors can chime
in words of wisdom as well.
I read somewhere it should be to avoid the stress on the seals but I
have never done it and my old compass works. It was reconditioned in
2006 after the boat made a road trip from Wisconsin to Halifax , Nova
Scotia.
I don't know if the original owner there took it off....from what I
understand, he was someone that might have done it.
