Navigating to a Destination
Using the
NAV
key, the GPSMAP 3206/3210 provides four ways to navigate to a
destination: Go To Point, Follow Track, TracBack, and Follow Route. When you
are actively navigating, you see a straight line on the Map Page that always runs
from your current location to the destination. The easiest method for selecting a
destination is the Go To function, which allows you to select a destination point,
and then quickly sets a direct course from your present location. If you highlight
a point on a list or the map and press
NAV
,
Go To <point name>
appears in
addition to
Go To Point
. The Go To function can be accessed from any list of
points or from the map display.

Selecting a Map Item Go To Destination
A Go To can be used to select one of three items from the map: an existing
waypoint, an on-screen map item such as a river, city, navaid, or a new map
point. If you select a map item as the Go To destination, the GPSMAP 3206/3210
automatically uses the name of the map item, but the point is not stored in the
for information on creating waypoints using map
items. If you select a new map point (non-map item) as the Go To destination, the
GPSMAP 3206/3210 automatically creates a waypoint named
MAP
at the pointer
location.

ROCKER

navigate to on the Map Page, and press
NAV
.
