You'll now have a clearer picture of the route we are navigating, along with an
outline-only presentation of the surrounding shoreline. Because the usable range
of the built-in database is only valid to 64 nm scale (32nm in the U.S.), we no
longer have full cartography available.
Keep in mind that whenever you do exceed the usable range of the built-in
database or the G-chart cartridge in use, the range field will display 'OVR ZM' or
'NO MAP' to indicate that you should exercise extreme caution using the cartogra-
phy data. See pages 42 and 85 for more information on map scales and using G-
chart detailed cartography.
