Joe, in '08, we had the compass refilled locally, in Baltimore. Here is the info I got from Ritchie. Ours is from 1994, hull #62

Hello Warren & Pattie,

It could be a Navigator series (DNB-200) or a Globemaster series (SP-5B, D-515B etc…). Once you take the compass out of the black base there should be a model and serial # on the side of the compass near the fill plug screw. Be careful when removing. Make sure you only remove the mounting screws. There are eight/ten screws around the dome of the compass that are holding the dome on and fluid in the compass. If you are unsure of which screws to remove, send me pictures of the compass and I can tell you which model you have and how to remove it.
Regards,
Cristin
Service Department
