The Silva 103RE (Racing Elite) is a dual-scale compass that allows sailors to read the actual course on both starboard and port necks as well as from the helmsman's normal position.
The double scale is divided into a green (starboard) and a red (port) scale where the numbers correspond to port and starboard necks as the scales are offset by +/- 40 ° from the top scale. That way, you only need to remember one number. This is a big advantage on triangular course sailing, where the sailor has to look for wind changes, rather than the actual course. The upper scale also makes it possible to read the course on the helm or check the starting line position. All this makes the 103RE perfect for dinghy racing.
