Abstract
A directional plotter for underwater searches, land searches, land orienting, or the like includes a pair of first and second relatively rotatable discs with the first disc including first, second and third concentric sets of compass degrees in radially adjacent relationship to each other. The second disc includes first, second and third sets of apertures associated with the first, second and third concentric sets of compass degrees. The two discs are relatively rotatable such that different search patterns can be established by rotating the discs relative to each other and viewing the required degrees for a particular search pattern through the associated apertures.
