Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks
Waypoints
A waypoint is a user generated mark positioned on a chart, on a radar image or on the
Echosounder image. Each waypoint has an exact position with latitude and longitude
coordinates. A waypoint positioned on the Echosounder image has a depth value, in
addition to position information. A waypoint is used to mark a position you later may want to
return to. Two or more waypoints can also be combined to create a route.
Saving waypoints
Use the new waypoint menu option to save a waypoint on the panel. If the cursor is active,
the waypoint is saved at the cursor position. If the cursor is not active, the waypoint is saved
at your vessel's position.
