My boat icon is 95 deg pointing to starboard.
Did a compass recalibration and it came up 3 deg deviation which is the lowest I have seen. I do have a lot of steel 4 feet to port of the fluxgate.

RE: [LW11] Boat icon
Dear Qjoy,

Thank you for the query.

How much steel are we talking? It is recommended the fluxgate is installed away from metal, I would try putting the fluxgate where there is less metal or interference and see if the heading becomes more realistic.

Many Thanks
Louise
