NoDrift
Note !
The source when operating in NoDrift mode is the Position (Pos)
source.
The NoDrift mode is an alternative to route steering in NAV
mode, and is automatically entered when you press the
NAV WIND button provided NoDrift has been selected in the
(user) SETUP menu.
The autopilot will steer to an imaginary waypoint and the
bearing is the boat's heading at the very moment the NoDrift
mode is engaged.
Unlike when in Auto mode the vessel will steer a course equal to
the bearing line unaffected by wind and current (no drift).
The course to steer to (bearing line) can be changed the same
way as when changing course in Auto mode.
