Hi Scippy, if is any more help my Danforth needs about a 5 1/2" hole give or take, has a 7" flange, with a 4 1/2" dia dome. Do you need a picture or is that good enough?
KALAAZAR No need to post a pic. All I need now is to go out & find one!.....thanks |

Up until 78 or so most of the high performance boats, race boats too, used the Danforth. I was one of the teams that did the testing for Ritchie. Ritchie used a very high grade oil that acted as a dampener for the card when it spun. To be period correct, use the Danforth, to have the best high speed compass, use the Ritchie.
Did you equip a Ritchie compass on the 24' Banana?........based on the same type (flush mount 4 1/2" dome Dansforth or Ritchie compass) the Ritchie is several hundred less. |
