Follow a Route
Note:
If a route has been reversed or if a route on screen was being fol-
lowed, but stopped before completion, the target waypoint (outlined by a
square box) may be different to when the route was created. The target
waypoint should always be checked before initiating a
FOLLOW ROUTE
.

1. Press the
GOTO
key. The GoTo/Follow functions are displayed.
Alternatively, place the cursor over a route leg until the Route func-
tions are displayed.
2. Select
FOLLOW ROUTE

The vessel’s current position becomes the origin and the first waypoint in
the current route becomes the target waypoint. A dotted line connects the
vessel’s current position to the target waypoint. This line remains fixed
on screen as the vessel moves. The function bar is removed.
