10.7 POSITION REPORT
The feature is similar to the position request, however instead of requesting
a position of another vessel this function allows you to send your position to
another vessel. In order to send your position you need to have a GPS receiver
connected or to have manually input your position. See section “
9.9 MANUAL
INPUTTING OF THE GPS LOCATION
.”
