    Pocket digital level. Works great. Cheap.
    Stanley Level app for the IPhone works great to.
    If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?

              Go buy a protractor from any of the office supply business. That will do all you need it to. And cheap too! Personaly my favorite is a machine tool grade Starrett Protractor/ inclometer but you dont need to spend those kind of bux. What ever you find make sure it can measure tenths of a degree.

                  For something different here's a diy setup board for riggers that will do struts as well, it uses charts and clearance gauges.
