To 'box the compass' was to name the 32 principal points of the compass. I'd say 32.

There are traditionally 16 cardinal points on old maritime compasses, these days it's more likely to be split into 360 points with each representing 1 degree of a circle but as it's an analogue device there are a infinite amount of potential points on a compass.

32 - although you can break it down further if you wish
