been surfing the net for a solution...looks like there is none.

Hmmmm. looks like I have another project this summer. I could buy a T-top, install an electronics box, and put the radio in there and re-do the dash. (jezzz, it would be easier to buy a new freeekin boat)
I might play with some magnets and if it looks possible to correct this, if it does, I will call in a compass guy to do it. I would like to have zero deviation but right now I have 30 deg.
(this is why I have 3 gps's on board, my compass is worthless as it is now)
