Navigating to Man Overboard: "Man Overboard activated" message

(left). The Navigation Page (center) with Map Page (right). The victim

is astern of the vessel; the GPS shows which direction to steer to for

the rescue.

The man overboard position is also stored in the waypoint list 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.

command: navigates to the current cursor position on

the map. It's a quick and handy way to navigate to anything you can

see on the map display.
1. Use the cursor (controlled by the arrow keys) with the zoom in and

zoom out keys to maneuver around the map until you find a location

you want to go to.
2. Center the cursor over the location to select it. See the example in

the following figure. (Many map items such as waypoints, Points of In-

terest, towns, etc. can be "selected," and appear "highlighted" with a

pop-up box. Other features, such as a river or a street intersection will

not appear "highlighted," but the cursor will take you to those locations

just the same.)
