Marine Mode operates in a very similar fashion to Aviation Mode,
while also providing many features and operations of Automotive
Mode. Refer to the corresponding sections in the Aviation and
Automotive sections for further details.

Refer to page 29 through 34 in the
Features" section for more details about the Map page.
The position marker (icon) that shows your travel on the Map page
is a triangle symbol in Marine and Automotive modes. The
GPSMAP 296 always powers up in position mode, with the last
known location centered on the map. When you press the Rocker
key, the GPSMAP 296 enters pan mode, which moves the map to
keep the white arrow (map pointer) within the display area.
In Marine Mode, by default, four user-selectable data fields appear
on the right side of the screen that can be configured to display any
one of the possible data options. You can also add additional data
fields to the page or select a full screen map without data fields.
