Navigating
The navigation function included in the system allows you to navigate to the cursor position,
to a waypoint, or along a predefined route.
If autopilot functionality is included in your system, the autopilot can be set to automatically
navigate the vessel.
For information about positioning waypoints and creating routes, refer to "Waypoints, Routes, and
Tracks" on page 37.
