CAUTION
The Auto Guidance feature is based on electronic chart
information. That data does not ensure obstacle and bottom
clearance. Carefully compare the course to all visual sightings,
and avoid any land, shallow water, or other obstacles that may
be in your path.
When using Go To, a direct course and a corrected course may
pass over land or shallow water. Use visual sightings, and steer
to avoid land, shallow water, and other dangerous objects.
NOTE:
Auto Guidance is available with premium charts, in
some areas.
Before you can navigate to a waypoint, you must create a
waypoint.

When using Auto Guidance, a gray segment within

cannot calculate part of the Auto Guidance line. This is due
to the settings for minimum safe water depth and minimum
safe obstacle height.

Follow the magenta line, steering to avoid land, shallow
water, and other obstacles.
