[C38] Compass fix in CA

Funny you should mention Safe Navigation.  I just got off the phone with
them when this e mail came by.  I developed a air bubble in my compass, it's
65 bucks to service the compass on the boat, now if there are major repairs
to be made the cost can run up to 175, for a deviation chart (sling) of the
compass the cost is 145 through Safe Navigation in Long Beach CA.

Not too bad at all so we are getting our compass serviced and a deviation
chart made. 





Best regards,
