the map.

by a magenta route line.

Waypoint 001 to your mouse pointer like a rubber band, showing you a

route of a fishing boat from Port Aransas, Texas, to some oil drilling
platforms and a wreck in the Gulf of Mexico, then back to port.
5. You can move off in any direction and the next waypoint will be linked in
a straight line to waypoint 1. Relocate your mouse pointer along your in-
tended route and click to create additional route waypoints as needed. Basi-
cally, you will set a new waypoint every time you need to change direction.
