Auto Tacking Or Gybing In Wind Mode - Navman G-PILOT 3380 Operation Manual

3-10-3 Auto tacking or gybing in wind mode

If the set wind angle (SWA) is 90° or less, the boat tacks, if the SWA is more than 90° the boat gybes.
After the tack or gybe, the SWA is the same as the SWA before the tack or gybe, but from the
other side.
• Press , select Tack/Gybe then press
• Press , select Tack/Gybe turn then press
Example:
SWA is 40°, so the boat will tack, not gybe. If the tack angle is not set to Auto, the boat changes
direction twice:
- first by the tack angle
- second so that SWA is the same as before the tack or gybe, but on the other side:
20
to tack or gybe to port
