Introducing waypoints

Waypoints are used to mark points to navigate to, for marking loca-
tions for fishing and diving, and as building-blocks in routes.
Waypoints can be created in any application and displayed on the
radar, chart and fishfinder windows. They can be viewed on all the
displays in a G-Series system.
