Browsing for and Navigating to a Saved Waypoint

All route and navigation lines displayed on the chartplotter
are only intended to provide general route guidance
or to identify proper channels, and are not intended
to be precisely followed. Always defer to the navaids
and conditions on the water when navigating to avoid
groundings or hazards that could result in vessel damage,
personal injury, or death.
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: Auto Guidance is available with premium charts, in
some areas.
Before you can navigate to a waypoint, you must create a
waypoint.
1 Select Info > User Data > Waypoints.
2 Select a waypoint.
3 Select Navigate To.
4 Select an option:
• To navigate directly to the location, select Go To.
• To create a route to the location, including turns,
