About waypoints
A waypoint is a user generated mark positioned on the:
• chart
• echosounder image
• radar image
• navigation panel
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
Save a waypoint at the cursor position if active or at the vessel's position if the cursor is not
active.
To save a waypoint:
• Press the rotary knob
• Press the Mark key
• Select the new waypoint option in the menu
