Standard Boat Properties include Boat Name/ID, Length, Width, Draft, Air Draft,
GPS Bow Offset and GPS Port Offset.

GPS antenna.

Boat Presentation Settings

Show Heading Line. Heading Line indicates the heading of the boat and originates
from the GPS transmitted position, extending 15 miles. The direction of the heading
line is based on input from the heading sensor. If no heading input is detected, the
Heading Line is based on the COG value. Default setting for this option is On.
Show Stern Flash Line. The Stern Flash Line is drawn 180 degrees from the
Heading Line, and also originates from GPS position, extending 15 miles. The
direction of the Stern Flash Line is based on input from the heading sensor. If no
heading input is detected, the Stern Flash Line is based on the COG value. Default
setting for this option is On.
