    I have one in the closet. Dad gave me one as a present but too big to fit anywhere.

    I used to always have one on my boat because I would run the Albemarle and Currituck Sound in NC. These are fairly large bodies of water. Since the mapping is on my Lowrance is so good and my cell phone has a compass I no longer have a stand alone compass.
