The NoDrift mode is an alternative to route steering in NAV

The autopilot will steer to an imaginary waypoint and the
bearing is the boat's heading at the very moment the NoDrift
mode is engaged.

The course to steer to (bearing line) can be changed the same
way as when changing course in Auto mode.
To operate in NoDrift mode your GPS/chart plotter must be
