Chapter 3: Waypoints 31

3.1 Introducing waypoints

A waypoint is a position marked on a chart or fishfinder screen as a

reference point or as a place to go to and can be used as a building

block when creating routes. Waypoints are represented on screen

by a symbol and their details stored in a waypoint list.

Waypoints can be created in any application and displayed on the

chart and fishfinder windows.

Chart waypoints

On a 2D chart all waypoints are shown.

The active waypoint (i.e the one to which you are heading) has a

box placed around the symbol to highlight it.

Fishfinder waypoints

On a fishfinder screen the waypoint appears as a vertical line

labelled WPT. This representation cannot be changed.
