Navigation with AQUAMAP

If your vessel has an autopilot system, a dedicated autopilot control display
must be installed at each steering helm in order to disable the autopilot
system.
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: Some chart views are available with premium charts, in some areas.
To navigate, you must choose a destination, set a course or create a route,
and follow the course or route. You can follow the course or the route on the
Nav. chart, Fishing chart, or 3D chart view.
You can set and follow a course to a destination using one of three methods:
Go To: Takes you directly to the destination. This is the standard option for
navigating to a destination. The AQUAMAP creates a straight-line course
or navigation line to the destination. The path may run over land and other
obstacles.
Route To: Creates a route from your location to a destination, allowing you
to add turns along the way. This option provides a straight-line course to
the destination, but allows you to add turns into the route to avoid land and
other obstacles.
Auto Guidance: Uses the specified information about your vessel and chart
data to determine the best path to your destination. This option is available
only when using a compatible premium chart in a compatible AQUAMAP.
It provides a turn-by-turn navigation path to the destination, avoiding land
