Save, Edit, or Delete a Waypoint
Save your current position as a waypoint:
On any view, press the MARK
key to save the current position of the boat as a waypoint.

the MARK key to save the marked position as a waypoint.
Save a position from the sonar history:
Use the Cursor key to point to a
feature in the sonar history (also called the Sonar Saver feature). Press the
MARK key to create a waypoint at the location where that sonar reading was
taken. The new waypoint will also record the depth at that location.
NOTE:
When you save a waypoint by any of these methods, a numerical
waypoint name is automatically assigned. You can edit the waypoint information
later to give it a different name and select an icon to represent it (see

Edit a waypoint:
From the Waypoints submenu, select Edit and press the
RIGHT Cursor key to display a list of saved waypoints. Select the waypoint

and DOWN Cursor keys to change the icon used to represent the waypoint
on the Combo and Chart Views. You can exit these fields with the LEFT and
RIGHT Cursor keys or by pressing the EXIT key. Select Save and press the
RIGHT Cursor key to save your changes.

LEFT Cursor keys to select a sort order:
