Navigating to Man Overboard: "Man Overboard activated" message 

shown at left. The Navigation Page is shown in the center and Map 

Page is shown at right. The victim is astern of the vessel; the GPS 

shows which direction to steer to for the rescue. 

The man overboard position is also stored in the waypoint list for future 
reference. It can be edited the same as any other waypoint. This pre-
vents the inadvertent loss of the current Man Overboard position.

URSOR

 command: navigates to the current cursor position on 

the map. It's a quick and handy way to navigate to anything you can 
see on the map display. 

1. Use the cursor (controlled by the arrow keys) with the zoom in and 
zoom out keys to maneuver around the map until you find a location 
you want to go to. 

2. Center the cursor over the location to select it. See the example in 
the following figure. (Many map items such as waypoints, Points of In-
terest, towns, etc. can be "selected," and appear "highlighted" with a 
pop-up box. Other features, such as a river or a street intersection will 
not appear "highlighted," but the cursor will take you to those locations 
just the same.)
