Autonautic Wooden Boxed Professional Pelorus TAX-00122

PROFESSIONAL GRADE PELORUS

Description:

The Professional Grade Pelorus TAX-00122 is a wooden boxed pelorus designed for professional use in maritime navigation. Encased in a plywood box finished in natural wood tones, this pelorus offers both functionality and elegance.

What is a pelorus:

A pelorus looks and works like a compass, complete with sighting vanes or a sighting telescope. However, unlike a compass, it doesn't have magnets or its own direction. Instead, it stays fixed in whichever direction it's set, offering straightforward orientation without magnetic influence.

Key Features:

• Box Construction: Plywood, finished in natural wood tones, measuring 21 x 21 x 18 cm.
• Pelorus Construction: Aluminum and polyamide construction for durability and stability.
• Bearing Card: Gimbaled bearing card with a diameter of 125 mm, marked in one-degree increments.
• Sun Shadow Vane: Includes a sun shadow vane for checking the ship's compass.
• Operational Use: Can be raised for operational use by engaging upper gimbals in the box and raising the sighting vanes or installing the sun shadow vane.

Functionality:

• Navigation: Watch relative bearings change and forecast collision situations.
• Offshore Arrangement: Arrange offshore with a 3-arm protractor.
• Compass Calibration: Check your compass against the sun or stars.
• Portability: Smaller in size, this portable alidade taximeter offers the same functionality as larger, permanently mounted meters.
• Versatility: Suitable for use on both large boats and smaller vessels.
• Decorative Element: The elegant design of the taximeter and its storage box makes it a decorative nautical element in addition to its practical use.
• Application: Ideal for professional maritime navigation, including on large boats, small vessels, and offshore operations.
