I get your point but at some point you have to trust your electronics not to crap out on you randomly. And for the cost of a good mounted compass you can pick up a cheapo handheld GPS as a back up to keep on board. I have a GPSmap 60 that goes with me on bigger trips and is also great for land excursions, double duty.
