ROUTES

Often a trip from one place to another involves several course changes, requiring a
series of route points (waypoints) which you navigate to, one after another. The se-
quence of waypoints leading to the ultimate destination is called a route.

How to Create Routes

You can store up to 200 routes and a route may contain a maximum of 100 route
points. There are three methods to create a route:
• With existing waypoints
• With track-based route using own ship positions recorded at preset intervals.
• With selected track (of own ship or other ship)
