I would like to keep the top of the console clear, so I was toying with the idea of a dash mounted compass at the top of the starboard instrument panel. what are your thoughts / experiences re: dash mounted compass? has anyone else done this? thanks Rufus 1989 Montauk 17' w/ F70 Yamaha

When underway, especially in heavy fog, I found it was not great for watching my course and keeping a eye out. My preference would be up on the console rail but I am not sure they are available. After installing a GPS (also showed compass heading) it became a moot point.
