Waypoints
A waypoint can be used to mark a school of
fish, reef, etc., and 20 waypoints may be en-
tered. You can set a waypoint as a destination
to get the range, bearing and time to go that
point. The latitude and longitude position of
the waypoint can be output to a navigation de-
vice, using the TLL sentence.
Note 1:
The waypoint feature requires latitude
and longitude position from a navigator.
Note 2:
The waypoint feature is not available
when the Tankenmaru feature is active.
