then initially be located at the vessel position. The grey icon will follow the vessel as the

key.
Find objects on chart panels

the vessel's position.
Ú Note: You must have a SIRIUS data package subscription to search for fueling stations and an
AIS receiver connected to search for vessels.
3D charts
The 3D option provides a three dimensional graphical view of land and sea contours.
Ú Note: All chart types work in 3D mode, but without 3D cartography for the appropriate area
the chart will appear flat.
When 3D chart option is selected, the Pan and the Rotate icons appear on the right side of
the chart panel.
Panning the 3D chart
You can move the chart in any direction by tapping the Pan icon and then dragging your
finger in the desired direction.

the chart to vessel position.

• To change the direction you are viewing, drag horizontally
• To change the tilt angle of the view, drag vertically
Ú Note: When centered on the vessel position, only the tilt angle can be adjusted. The view
direction is controlled by the chart orientation setting. See "Positioning the vessel on the chart panel" on
page 22.
