Creating a Waypoint on the Chart
1
From a chart, select a location or object.
2
Select Create Waypoint.
Navigating to a Point on the Chart
WARNING
All route and navigation lines displayed on the chartplotter are
only intended to provide general route guidance or to identify
proper channels, and are not intended to be precisely followed.
Always defer to the navaids and conditions on the water when
navigating to avoid groundings or hazards that could result in
vessel damage, personal injury, or death.
The Auto Guidance feature is based on electronic chart
information. That data does not ensure obstacle and bottom
clearance. Carefully compare the course to all visual sightings,
and avoid any land, shallow water, or other obstacles that may
be in your path.
When using Go To, a direct course and a corrected course may
pass over land or shallow water. Use visual sightings, and steer
to avoid land, shallow water, and other dangerous objects.
NOTE: The Fishing chart is available with premium charts, in
some areas.
NOTE: Auto Guidance is available with premium charts, in some
areas.
1
From the Navigation chart or Fishing chart, select a location.
2
If necessary, select Navigate To.
3
Select an option:
• To navigate directly to the location, select Go To.
• To create a route to the location, including turns, select
Route To.
• To use Auto Guidance, select Auto Guidance.
4
Review the course indicated by the magenta line.
NOTE: When using Auto Guidance, a gray segment within
any part of the magenta line indicates that Auto Guidance
cannot calculate part of the Auto Guidance line. This is due to
the settings for minimum safe water depth and minimum safe
obstacle height.
5
Follow the magenta line, steering to avoid land, shallow
water, and other obstacles.
Viewing Location and Object Information on a Chart
You can view information, such as tide, current, celestial, chart
notes, or local services, about a location or an object on the
Navigation chart or the Fishing chart.
1
From the Navigation chart or Fishing chart, select a location
or object.
A list of options appears along the top of the chart. The
options that appear vary based on the location or object you
selected.
2
Select Information.
Viewing Details about Navaids
From the Navigation chart, Fishing chart, Perspective 3D chart
view, or Mariner’s Eye 3D chart view, you can view details about
various types of navigation aids, including beacons, lights, and
obstructions.
NOTE: The Fishing chart is available with premium charts, in
some areas.
NOTE: 3D chart views are available with premium charts, in
some areas.
1
From a chart or 3D chart view, select a navaid.
2
Select the name of the navaid.
Heading Line and Angle Markers
The heading line is an extension drawn on the map from the
bow of the boat in the direction of travel. Angle markers indicate
relative position from the heading or course over ground, which
are helpful for casting or finding reference points.
Setting the Heading Line and Angle Markers
The heading line is an extension drawn on the map from the
bow of the boat in the direction of travel. Angle markers indicate
relative position from the heading or course over ground, which
are helpful for casting or finding reference points.
You can show the heading line and the course over ground
(COG) line on the chart.
COG is your direction of movement. Heading is the direction the
bow of the boat is pointed, when a heading sensor is connected.
1
From a chart, select MENU > Layers > My Vessel >
Heading Line.

• To use data from both a connected heading sensor and
the GPS antenna, select COG and Heading.
This displays both the heading line and the COG line on
the chart.
4
Select Display, and select an option:
• Select Distance > Distance, and enter the length of the
line shown on the chart.
• Select Time > Time, and enter the time used to calculate
the distance your boat will travel in the specified time at

you to get the most out of your chartplotter. In addition to
detailed marine charting, premium charts may contain these
features, which are available in some areas.
