Ritchie NC-20 Navigator Bulkhead Mount Compass Cover - White

The Ritchie NC-20 Navigator Bulkhead Mount Compass Cover in white is an essential protection accessory for any boater serious about maintaining their marine navigation equipment. Whether you're running coastal routes, crossing open water, or anchoring in remote anchorages, your compass faces constant exposure to UV rays, salt spray, and weather that can degrade both the lens clarity and internal mechanisms over time. This cover exists because compass damage isn't just about cosmetics—a compromised compass reading can throw off your navigation by critical margins when visibility is low or electronics fail.

Ritchie designed the NC-20 as a dedicated bulkhead-mount solution that fits standard 3-inch Navigator compass housings with precision engineering. The white finish reflects solar heat, minimizing thermal stress on the sealed compass card and reducing glare that can strain visibility during extended day runs. Constructed to withstand marine environments, this cover shields the lens from salt-laden spray, algae growth, and bird droppings while allowing quick removal when navigation demands immediate access.

The compact footprint of 9 x 4 x 10 inches mounts flush without interfering with nearby instrumentation or creating wind-catching edges that rock smaller boats. This cover suits every boater from weekend anglers protecting a time-worn compass to serious cruisers running multiple vessel routes. Installation is straightforward on any bulkhead-mounted Navigator model, ensuring that your compass remains protected and accessible.
