Display example
This route plan thus consists of harbor AA and the destinations which are the two fishing points (waypoint
numbers 011 and 012) and harbor BB (waypoint 013). In following a set route plan, the navigator
switches from one waypoint to another when it comes within a certain distance from the first waypoint
(automatic stepping of waypoints). In automatic stepping, when the ship comes in the range set for the
waypoint arrival alarm, the waypoints are stepping.

4.18 Setting Route Plans
A route consisting of several connected waypoints is called a route plan. For example, say that you go
from a harbor (waypoint number 010), to a fishing point (waypoint number 011), to another fishing
point (waypoint number 012) and then return to a different harbor (waypoint number 013).
