Portland Course Plotter (with 7'' divider) Kit

Excellent The course plotter arrived quickly, was very well packed, & of good quality. Didn't need to contact the sellers, but can recommend them.

Great value

Good use of it

Bought as a present. Recipient is very pleased. He now has another Winter project: charting his route from the Clyde to Mull and beyond for next year. I've even caught him wondering about a circumnavigation of Ireland. Funy how an apparently small spark can ignite big dreams. Arrived quickly, safely packed in a huge box, a problem with odd sized packages. Well made, substantial and fully fit for purpose at a very competitive price. Recommended.

Very Happy with both the divider and plotter, I thought for the price that they may not necessarily be BH but I was wrong. As with all BH dividers ( in my experience anyway) there is an adjusting screw at the fulcrum, so should these become loose or initially too tight, this can be adjusted. BH Plotter also to a high standard ( as always) and was put into use immediately. Product was well packaged and delivered within 48hrs of the order being placed. Perfect result, I would give 6 stars if I could.

Quick delivery and a really well packaged to ensure no damage. Only slight gripe with the callipers is the hinge. Understand the arms need to be offset to pass each other but there is a significant ‘kink’ at the point of the hinge causing them to bind. Loosening the screw without being too lose does not improve this. Result is it is difficult to have smooth open and close for ‘accurate’ distance measuring. Yes, electronics make this less important, but then why have it in the first place. I like to use paper for planning as a backup, not going to quit on me because of a power failure. So, this could be improved.

This is no cheaply made budget plotter. It is made in England by the Blondell Harking Company the instructions are well written by James Stevens the RYA National Coach. Even the dividers are solid brass and are a prescision piece of equipment very good for those doing the Day Skipper course or to keep aboard when the Chart plotter etc fails. I would highly recommend this product and the company who stocks it.

A real quality made plotter set, the pointy thing is my favourite component because as well as being pretty useful for mapping and plotting, it is also very good as a back scratcher for those very hard to reach parts, also for when you lull aside markets in some of the more rural harbours of the East Indies, they are very good for stabbing at the fruit and zooming off without paying, a sort of East Indian form of Maritime scrumpy. I know where I got it from my Great Great grandad was transported to Australia for stealing fruit! Anyway a great kit in really good and uneasy to open packaging that goes a fair way to helping to destroy the enviornment
