I rebuilt our compass about 5 years ago, replacing a cracked dome, but it still has a slow leak. Fortunately, I still have plenty of compass fluid (mineral oil) left over from my earlier repair. Here you see the compass exposed with the binacle cover removed. I've taken the compass off the boat so that I can work on it over the winter. If you look closely, you can see an earlier project, where I replaced an incandescent compass light with two LEDs.
