Set Man Overboard (MOB) Waypoint
One of boating's most terrifying events is having a friend or family
member fall overboard. This situation can be deadly on any body of wa-
ter — fresh or salt. It's particularly dangerous at night or if you're out
of sight of land. Of course, the first thing to do is remain calm and try
all standard safety measures to try and rescue the person.
This unit has a man overboard feature that shows navigation data to
the location where the feature was activated. To activate it, press the
ZOUT and ZIN keys at the same time. Your position at the time these
keys are pressed is used as the man overboard position.
Caution:
Saving a new "Man Overboard" waypoint will overwrite and
erase the previous "Man Overboard" waypoint.
Navigate Back to MOB Waypoint
Find your way back to the accident position with the Compass Page or
Map Page. When MOB is activated, the Compass Page automatically
shows the compass rose with its bearing arrow pointing toward the
man overboard position, and the destination name says "Going To Man
Overboard." The Map Page displays a Man Overboard waypoint, repre-
sented by a human figure, and the steering arrow points where to steer
to reach that position.
The man overboard position is also stored in the waypoint table for fu-
ture reference. It can be edited the same as any other waypoint. This
prevents the inadvertent loss of the current Man Overboard position.
