Offshore 75 compass retaining ring
I lost the top section of our Plastimo Offshore 75 compass (black) over the weekend. Does anyone know where I can get a spare - its only a circular bit of plastic!
Thanks

Yes, a surface mount type. The top shroud appears to be the same as on yours.

If you do I'd be interested, no spare parts from the Australian distributor unfortunately.

For something that is designed to do what it is designed to do I am amazed how easily that shroud falls off.....

Not that I almost talk from experience or anything...... I may come back to this thread in the future!

Shame, coz it's a good compass otherwise.

I'm sure I've seen you nearly lose it (the compass) more than once ....actually come to think of it - not just the compass!
