Answer: Option 3

A compass, which is used to assist in navigation, is an instrument that shows magnetic north. You must apply a correction to determine the direction of true north. The ability to steer a boat by a compass is useful if land is out of sight, visibility is reduced, or the boat operator is disoriented. Mount a boat compass away from iron, magnets, and electrical wiring and equipment.
