Anything can fail.  The failure rate of my GPS is a whole lot lower than the failure rate of me.

On my way home I did miss the turn out of Batchewan Bay N toward Batchewan Lake.  The perils of trolling and enjoying a nice tailwind.  Checked my compass and sure enough I was heading SW instead of of N.

Key thing to remember when using a compass.  Belt buckles and other metal objects to be kept clear.  I wear my knife around my neck sometimes, I'm always due N no matter which way I turn!
