Dock-to-dock Autorouting and Easy Routing
The Dock-to-dock Autorouting and Easy Routing features suggest
new routepoint positions based on information in the map and on
your boat's size. Before you can start using these features the boat
draught, width and height must be entered into the system. The
boat settings dialog is automatically displayed if the information is
missing when you start the feature. To enter boat settings, refer to
"System settings" on page 197.
Ú Note:
It is not possible to start the Dock-to-dock Autorouting or
Easy Routing if one of the selected routepoints is located in an
unsafe area. A warning dialog is displayed, and you have to
move the relevant routepoint(s) to a safe area to proceed.
Ú Note:
If no compatible cartography is available, the Dock-to-
dock Autorouting or Easy Routing menu option is not available.
