will remain there until you manually remove it or clear
the receiver’s memory. For more on waypoint manage-
ment, see pg. 21-28.
Using the Position and Map Pages
Now that you’ve marked a position, let’s see how
the Position and Map Pages can be used to monitor
your progress as we head out into the open water.
As always, ensure your primary focus is on
boating traffic and monitor the GPS 125
Sounder briefly when operating your boat.
The direction you are moving (track) and your
speed are shown on the top of the Position Page, below
the graphic compass tape. The latitude, longitude, and
approximate altitude of your position--with a resettable
trip odometer--are displayed in the middle of the page,
with the time of day and digital depth shown below.

The arrow keypad is used
for all data entry. Use the
UP and DOWN keys to
select letters, numbers, or
menu options, and use the
LEFT and RIGHT keys to
move the cursor forward or
backward along the line.
