The Hawke Endurance ED Marine 7×42 is a compact marine monocular designed for quick one-handed observation and easy carrying. Its 7× magnification, 42 mm objective, ED glass and phase-corrected BAK-4 roof prism provide a stable and clear image in overcast weather and lower-light conditions. Suitable for use Boating and sailing Fishing Kayaking and canoeing Coastal and harbour observation Watching seabirds and marine wildlife Quick one-handed viewing Hiking and general nature observation Users who find a full-size binocular too heavy Why choose the Hawke Endurance ED Marine 7×42? Stable 7× magnification for marine use Bright 42 mm objective lens Extra-low-dispersion glass Phase-corrected BAK-4 roof prism Fully multi-coated lenses Wide 131 m field of view at 1000 m Nitrogen-purged, waterproof and fog-proof body Compact construction weighing only 405 g Close focus of 2 m Twist-up eyecup with position stops Floating wrist strap included Tripod mounting thread Protective pouch and hard carry case included Technical specifications Product type: Monocular Optical system: Hawke System H5 Magnification: 7× Objective diameter: 42 mm Prism type: Roof Prism glass: BAK-4 Prism coating: Phase-corrected Optical glass: ED Lens coating: Fully multi-coated Field of view: 131 m at 1000 m Angular field of view: 7.5° Apparent field of view: 53° Exit pupil: 6 mm Eye relief: 17 mm Close focus: 2 m Focusing: Eyepiece Eyecup: Twist-up with position stops Eyecup diameter: 43 mm Tripod thread: 1/4"-20 UNC Height: 159 mm Width: 80 mm Weight: 405 g Colour: Blue Gas filling: Nitrogen Waterproof: Yes Fog proof: Yes Compass: No Supplied with Hawke Endurance ED Marine 7×42 monocular Floating strap Objective lens cover Ocular lens cover Lens cloth Protective pouch Hard protective carry case Instruction manual Frequently asked questions Does the Hawke Endurance ED Marine 7×42 monocular float? Hawke identifies the supplied strap as floating, but does not state that the monocular itself is buoyant. The strap should remain securely attached to both the monocular and the user’s wrist whenever it is used on the water. Does this model have an integrated compass? No. Product code 36520 does not include a compass. The compass-equipped version is product code 36521. What is the difference between a monocular and a binocular? A monocular is smaller, lighter and quicker to use with one hand. A binocular provides a more natural and comfortable view during extended observation because both eyes are used. A monocular is the better option when low weight and immediate access matter most. Can this monocular be used while wearing glasses? Yes. It has 17 mm of eye relief and an adjustable twist-up eyecup. Eyeglass wearers should normally twist the eyecup down to see as much of the field of view as possible. Recommended products A marine compass when directional bearings are required A lens-cleaning pen and microfibre cloth A compact tripod for extended stationary observation A 7×50 marine binocular for longer viewing sessions An 8×42 monocular for general land use A 10×42 monocular for viewing finer detail at longer distances When is the Hawke Endurance ED Marine 7×42 the right choice? This monocular is well suited to users who want compact, weather-resistant optics that can be accessed quickly on the water. Seven-power magnification is easier to keep steady on a moving boat than stronger optics, while the 131 m field of view helps locate moving objects quickly. A 7×50 binocular is more comfortable for prolonged observation and provides additional low-light capability through its larger objectives. Choose the 36521 compass version if directional bearings are required. For observing distant detail from stable ground, a 10×42 monocular may be more suitable. Expert recommendation The Endurance ED Marine 7×42 offers a useful balance between portability and low-light performance. It weighs less than half as much as the 7×50 binocular in the same range, while its 42 mm objective and 6 mm exit pupil still provide a comfortable image in changing light. Seven-power magnification is sensible on a moving boat because normal hand movement and deck motion are not exaggerated as strongly. Whenever possible, support your hands against a railing or hold the monocular with both hands. Eyeglass wearers should twist the eyecup down, while users without glasses can extend it to the most comfortable position. If the monocular is exposed to salt water, remove the salt using clean fresh water or a damp soft cloth. Do not rub dried salt crystals directly across the lens coatings. Always use the supplied floating strap on the water. Compact marine optics that stay close at hand The Hawke Endurance ED Marine 7×42 combines ED glass, a wide field of view and waterproof construction in a 405 g body. It is a practical alternative to a full-size binocular for boating, fishing and coastal observation when compact size and quick one-handed use are priorities.
