change this setting while navigating. The available values for the Shoreline
Distance setting are relative, not absolute. To ensure the Auto Guidance line
is placed the appropriate distance from shore, you can assess the placement
of the Auto Guidance line using one or more familiar destinations that require
navigation through a narrow waterway.
