are plenty of spots on charts where the compass will be 6-8 degrees off even

LOL! My BS meter just went off scale! Declination? Lines of magnetic
_variation_ are plotted on VP charts and better than 0.5 degree accuracy
(except at local anomalies which are only noted in nautical charts as
far as I've seen so far). Declination in navigation is actually
something else but I'll let you googgle for it.
