Steering Patterns
You are responsible for the safe operation of your boat. Do not begin a pattern until you are certain the water is clear of obstacles.
The autopilot can steer the boat in preset patterns for fishing, and it can perform other specialty maneuvers such as U-turns and Williamson turns.
Where noted, some pattern steering is based on GPS, and cannot be used without a GPS antenna or device connected to the same NMEA 2000® network as the helm control.
