The Raymarine T008 bowsprit bracket is an accessory designed to securely mount Raymarine racing instruments, such as the Race Master and Micro Compass, on a spinnaker pole. It allows strategic positioning of the display for improved visibility and optimal accuracy during navigation, particularly during regattas.

The Raymarine T008 bowsprit bracket is compatible with the Raymarine Race Master and the Raymarine Micro Compass. It is specifically designed for these instruments to ensure secure mounting and optimal use on a spinnaker pole.

The Raymarine T008 bowsprit bracket package contains the following items:

T008 bowsprit bracket
A mounting bracket
Four bolts and nuts
One adhesive foam pad
The plastic compass cradle is not included with the bracket and is supplied separately with the Raymarine compass itself.

After attaching the adhesive foam pad under the bracket and mounting the interface bracket (if needed for the Race Master) using the supplied bolts and nuts, you can secure the entire clamp to the spinnaker pole. This can be done using means such as Velcro, hose clamps, or adhesive tape, depending on your preference. It is important not to place it too far along the pole to maintain easy access to the compass.

Yes, once the T008 clamp is properly secured to the spinnaker pole, it is designed to be a permanent fixture. This allows you to easily clip and unclip your Raymarine compass from its bracket each time you sail, without having to disassemble the entire clamp.

To ensure the accuracy of your Raymarine compass mounted on the T008 bracket, it is crucial to follow these guidelines:

The compass must be mounted within 20° of vertical.
Do not tilt the compass excessively to port or starboard.
Do not install the compass less than 0.6 meters (2 feet) from magnetic objects. A conventional compass is considered a magnetic object.
Adhering to these rules is essential to prevent interference and ensure the integrity of the data displayed by your instrument.

The T008 clamp comes with additional features to enhance your sailing experience:

A hole is provided at the end of the clamp to attach a bungee. This bungee can be connected to the mast to keep the jib and spinnaker sheets clear of your compass, preventing snags. Another hole at the front of the clamp allows you to attach a safety lanyard. This lanyard, connected to the spinnaker mast, provides extra security for the instrument, protecting it in case of an unexpected impact or loosening.

No, the plastic cradle in which the Raymarine compass clips is not included with the T008 bowsprit bracket. This cradle is supplied separately with the Raymarine compass itself. The T008 bracket is designed to accommodate this cradle.
