Navigating to a Point on the Chart

WARNING

All route and navigation lines displayed on the chartplotter are only intended to provide general route guidance or to identify proper channels, and are not intended to be precisely followed. Always defer to the navaids and conditions on the water when navigating to avoid groundings or hazards that could result in vessel damage, personal injury, or death.

WARNING

The Auto Guidance feature is based on electronic chart information. That data does not ensure obstacle and bottom clearance. Carefully compare the course to all visual sightings, and avoid any land, shallow water, or other obstacles that may be in your path.

WARNING

When using Go To, a direct course and a corrected course may pass over land or shallow water. Use visual sightings, and steer to avoid land, shallow water, and other dangerous objects.

NOTE: The Fishing chart is available with premium charts, in some areas.
NOTE: Auto Guidance is available with premium charts, in some areas.
  1. From the Navigation chart or Fishing chart, select a location.
  2. If necessary, select Navigate To.
  3. Select an option:
    • To navigate directly to the location, select Go To or Direct route symbol.

    • To create a route to the location, including turns, select Route To or Route with turns symbol.

    • To use Auto Guidance, select Auto Guidance or Auto guidance route symbol.

  4. Review the course indicated by the magenta line (Route Color Coding).
    NOTE: When using Auto Guidance, a gray segment within any part of the magenta line indicates that Auto Guidance cannot calculate part of the Auto Guidance line. This is due to the settings for minimum safe water depth and minimum safe obstacle height.
  5. Follow the magenta line, steering to avoid land, shallow water, and other obstacles.
