depth scale limit are shaded. Areas of water that are shallower than
the depth scale limit are shown in a lighter shade.

• Starboard (STB) — provides a viewpoint above and to the port of

your vessel, looking starboard.

• Aft (AFT) — provides a viewpoint above and in front of your

vessel, looking aft.

• Port (PRT) — provides a viewpoint above and to the starboard

of your vessel, looking to port.

When one of these options is selected, the viewpoint of the 3D chart
