What is a magnetic compass adjustment?
A magnetic compass adjustment is the process of identifying and reducing deviation evident in a vessel’s magnetic compass. A licensed Compass Adjuster attends the vessel, identifies the deviation and its sources, and where necessary may fit and reposition the appropriate hard iron and soft iron correctors to reduce or remove this deviation. A Compass Adjuster’s Declaration and Deviation Card is issued on completion. The adjustment is carried out in accordance with the applicable regulations, including AMSA Marine Order 27 (Safety of Navigation and Radio Equipment), SOLAS Chapter V Regulation 19, and ISO 25862.
