Table Of Contents
From the navigation chart, select Menu > Layers > My Vessel >
Laylines > Setup.
Display: Sets how the laylines and vessel appear on the chart,
and sets the length of the laylines.
Sailing Ang.: Allows you to select how the device calculates
laylines. The Actual option calculates the laylines using the
measured wind angle from the wind sensor. The Manual
option calculates the laylines using manually entered
windward and leeward angles.
Windward Ang.: Allows you to set a layline based on the
windward sailing angle.
Leeward Ang.: Allows you to set a layline based on the leeward
sailing angle.
Tide Correction: Corrects the laylines based on the tide.
Layline Filter: Filters the layline data based on the time interval
entered. For a smoother layline that filters out some of the
changes in the boat's heading or true wind angle, enter a
higher number. For laylines that display a higher sensitivity to
changes in the boat's heading or true wind angle, enter a
lower number.

bottom contours and depth soundings and simplifies map
presentation for optimal use while fishing.

This feature is available only with some premium maps.

feature is available only with some premium maps.
Depth Range Shading
You can set color ranges on your map to show the water depths
where your target fish are currently biting. You can set deeper
ranges to monitor how quickly the bottom depth changes within
a specific depth range. You can create up to ten depth ranges.
For inland fishing, a maximum of five depth ranges can help
reduce map clutter. The depth ranges apply to all charts and all
bodies of water.
Some Garmin LakeVü
and premium supplemental charts have
multiple depth range shading by default.
Red From 0 to 1.5 m (from 0 to 5 ft.)
Orange From 1.5 to 3 m (from 5 to 10 ft.)
Yellow From 3 to 4.5 m (from 10 to 15 ft.)
