Weems & Plath Instruments & Parts

Weems & Plath Marine Instruments and Hardware

Fisheries Supply offers a broad collection of Weems & Plath products, a brand synonymous with maritime excellence since 1928. Founded by Captain Philip Van Horn Weems in Annapolis, Maryland, Weems & Plath has evolved from a navigation school to a leading manufacturer of high-quality navigational instruments and marine products.

A Legacy of Innovation

Weems's journey began with teaching navigation and quickly expanded into crafting tools to complement their courses. By the mid-1970s, the company had shifted its focus entirely to producing navigation equipment and providing expert advice to the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard. A pivotal moment came in 1953 when Weems partnered with German compass maker C. Plath, leading to the iconic brand we know today.
