Waypoints
are stored positions that allow you to mark areas of interest or
navigation points. Your Fishfinder can store up to 2,750 waypoints.
Routes
link two or more waypoints together to create a path for navigation and
are used in trip planning. You can link individual waypoints together by using the
GOTO key. Your Fishfinder can store up to 45 routes that can each contain up to
50 waypoints.
A route represents your intended navigation and shows the shortest path from
each waypoint to the next. As you travel a route, staying on the route line is the
most efficient way to get to your destination, although you should always look
out for obstacles not shown on the chart. A
Route Leg
is the path between each
waypoint in a route. The color of each route leg is displayed as follows:
• Completed Route Leg = Gray
• Current Route Leg = Green
• Future Route Leg = Gold
Tracks
consist of detailed position history and are displayed as a breadcrumb
trail of trackpoints. The Current Track shows the position history since the unit
was powered up. You can clear the Current Track or save it at any time. Your
Fishfinder can store up to 50 saved tracks, each containing 20,000 trackpoints.
The current track represents your actual path so far.
NOTE:
The maximum number of waypoints and routes may vary due to the
setup of your Waypoint Management directory. Groups and sub-groups also
use storage, and the storage limit is influenced by the complexity of your
Waypoint Management directory.
