Creating and Navigating a Route from Your Present Location

You can create and immediately navigate a route on the Navigation Chart or the Fishing Chart. This procedure

or if your built-in map supports Fishing Charts.

:

6. Select Add turn.

7. If necessary, repeat steps 5 and 6 to add additional turns, working backward from the destination to the

present location of your boat.
The last turn you add should be where you want to make the first turn from your present location. It should

be the turn that is closest to your boat.

8. Select Done when the route is complete.

Note: If you move the cursor after selecting the last turn but before selecting Done, an additional turn

will be added to the route.
