Going to a Destination

Using the NAV/MOB key, the GPSMAP 162 provides four ways to navigate to a destination: Go To

Waypoint, Follow Track (TracBack), MOB (Man OverBoard), and Follow Route navigation. Once you

are actively navigating, you will see a straight line that always runs from the point where you started the

GOTO, to the destination. The easiest method for selecting a destination is the 'Go To' function, which

lets you select a destination waypoint and quickly sets a direct course from your present position.

If you have a waypoint highlighted on a list or the map, 'Go To <waypoint name>' will appear in

addition to 'Go To Waypoint'. The 'Go To' function can be accessed from a list of waypoints or

graphically from the map display.
