3. Drop the anchor then click the [Drop Anchor] button.
4. Click the [Start Anchor Watch] button to start the anchor watch.
If your vessel travels from the CCRP more than the distance set here, the correspond-
ing caution is generated.
To continue to use the anchor watch, click the [Clear Anchor] button to set the alarm
about your conning position. To stop the anchor watch, click the [Stop Anchor Watch]
button. The caution is not generated even if your ship drifts more than the distance set
with [Drag Circle].
If your ship drifts more than the anchor watch setting, the Alert 495 "Anchor Watch
Setting" appears.
