Measuring distance
The cursor can be used to measure the distance between your
vessel and a selected position, or between 2 points on the chart
panel.
1.
Position the cursor on the point where you want to measure the
distance to. Start the measure function from the menu
- The measuring icons appear with a line drawn from the vessel
center to the cursor position, and the distance is listed in the
cursor information window.
2.
The measuring points can be repositioned by dragging either
icon while the measuring function is active.
Ú Note:
The bearing is always measured from the grey icon to the
blue icon.
The start measuring function can also be started without an active
cursor. Both measuring icons are then initially located at the vessel
position. The grey icon follows the vessel as the vessel moves, while
the blue icon remains at the position given when you activated the
function. The measuring points can then be repositioned by
dragging either icon.
Terminate the measuring function by selecting the finish measuring
option.

Find objects on chart panels

You can search for other vessels or various chart items from a chart
panel.
Activate the cursor on the panel to search from the cursor position.
If the cursor is not active, the system searches for items from the
vessel's position.
Ú Note:
You must have a SiriusXM® Marine subscription to search
for fueling stations.
