3-1-1 Navigating to a point
When the TRACKFISH is navigating to a
point, the chart and highway displays show
navigation data:
A The boat position .
B The destination point marked with a circle.
C The boat's plotted course to the
destination.
D Two CDI lines, parallel to the boat's plotted
course, which indicate the maximum
expected deviation from the plotted
course.
For more information, see appendix C.
If the TRACKFISH is connected to an autopilot,
the TRACKFISH will send data to the autopilot
to steer the boat to the destination. Start the
autopilot before starting to navigate to the
point.
If the TRACKFISH has no autopilot, steer the
boat manually:
a use the boat position and destination on
the chart or highway displays

data header (see section 2-7-3)
c or use COG and BRG on the compass (see
section 2-7-4).
