5.3 Chart Overview
The illustration below shows the components of a typical chart view.
Your position
Your position is displayed in the data bar under VES POS. If head-
ing or COG data is available, your position is represented on
screen by a boat symbol; if heading or COG data is not available,
your position is represented by a solid circle.
The display tells you which orientation and motion mode you are in.
For more details, see
page 66 .
If your position is outside the area of chart currently shown in the
chart window, the vessel symbol will not be visible. You can tell the
system to locate your vessel and centre the chart display about it.
To locate your vessel
1. Toggle to SHIP using the FIND softkey.
This puts your vessel on screen, as long as the system has a fix for
your location.
