There may be a time when you want to maintain your position at a
given location in open water. Some applications for this need may be:
}>
Staying over a dive. wreck.
}>
Staying over a fishing hole.
}>
Recovering an oceanographic survey point.
You can easily accomplish this task by two methods: by placing the
marker in PLOn on the location you want to maintain and by refer-
ring to the bearing and range inPLOT2 to maintain the position. Ifyou
are placing and recovering crab pots along a course line, you can enter
your course in the RfEl screen, then place the marker at each crab pot
in turn.
You can also selectWPTPass Criterion: Distance to WPTin theCFGl
Navigation screen and set the WPT Pass Distance: 0.00; or set the
WPT Pass Criterion to Manual.
