Track View -

This view shows the current track (also known as the position history

or breadcrumb trail) showing where the boat has been, along with saved tracks,
waypoints, and the current route (when navigating).

Panning:

Use the 4-WAY Cursor keys to move the grid around on the display in

the direction of the key being pressed. When you do this, a bullseye cursor is
drawn at the center of the screen and is linked to the boat by a gray line, even if
the boat is off the screen.
