A magenta line appears. In the center of the magenta line is
a thinner purple line that represents the corrected course
from your present location to the destination. The corrected
course is dynamic, and it moves with your boat when you are
off course.
5
Review the course indicated by the magenta line.
6
Follow the magenta line along each leg in the route, steering
to avoid land, shallow water, and other obstacles.
7
If you are off course, follow the purple line (corrected course)
to go to your destination, or steer back to the magenta line
(direct course).

Configuring the Recording Interval of the
Track Log
You can indicate the frequency at which the track plot is
recorded. Recording more frequent plots is more accurate but
fills the track log faster. The resolution interval is recommended
for the most efficient use of memory.

Keel Offset
: Offsets the surface reading for the depth of a keel,

Setting the Keel Offset
You can enter a keel offset to compensate the surface reading
for the depth of a keel, making it possible to measure water
depth or depth below the keel instead of depth below the
transducer. Enter a positive number to offset for a keel. You can
enter a negative number to compensate for a large vessel that
may draw several feet of water.

Complete an action, based on the location of the transducer:
• If the transducer is installed at the water line
À
, measure
the distance from the transducer location to the keel of the
boat. Enter this value in steps 3 and 4 as a positive
number to display depth below keel.
• If the transducer is installed at the bottom of the keel
Á
,
measure the distance from the transducer to the water
line. Enter this value in steps 3 and 4 as a negative
