NASA Marine Target 2 Compass
Precision Navigation with Remote Fluxgate Sensor
The NASA Marine Target 2 Compass is a sophisticated, fully electronic navigation instrument designed for ultimate reliability in harsh marine environments. Unlike traditional magnetic compasses, this system utilizes a remote fluxgate sensor which can be mounted away from local magnetic interference—such as engines or electrical equipment—to provide an accurate, stable heading at all times.
Key Features
- ✔ Large, high-visibility digital display
- ✔ Red backlighting for night navigation
- ✔ 9 levels of adjustable electronic damping
- ✔ Auto-calibration to cancel magnetic errors
- ✔ Suitable for steel and aluminum hulls

Questions & Answers
Is this a genuine original part?
Yes, this is a genuine NASA Marine product, part of the established Target instrument range known for durability and accuracy.
How do I know if it is compatible?
We recommend checking the SKU/MPN and Cross Reference list provided above. This unit is a standard 12V marine instrument and will fit most cockpit panel mounts with a 78mm x 72mm cutout.
Can this compass be used on a steel or aluminum boat?
Yes. Because it uses a remote fluxgate sensor, you can mount the sensor in a location away from the metal hull structure (or on a mast/pulpit) to ensure an accurate reading, which is difficult with traditional magnetic compasses.
