The bridge and after steering repeaters are mounted on ad­just­able brack­ets. The position of the repeater can be changed so as to allow a full face view of the dial from almost any angle.

The bearing repeater is of great aid to the navigator. The repeater is mounted within the stand and, of course, shows the exact reading of the Master Compass. In taking a bearing on a distant object or a sun azimuth it is not necessary to first set the “dumb” compass to correspond with the main com­pass. A cons­tant true ind­i­ca­tion is af­ford­ed.

Installation of the bear­ing re­peat­er can be made in such a po­si­tion on the up­per bridge so that it may be used for steering from that position as well as for taking bearings. A special pelorus stand cover can be supplied with windows to allow steering with the cover on, so as to protect the repeater from spray and the weather.
