Laylines Settings

To use the laylines features, you must connect a wind sensor to the chartplotter.

When in sailing mode (Setting the Vessel Type), you can display laylines on the navigation chart. Laylines can be very helpful when racing.


Sailing laylines on the chart

From the Navigation chart, select Menu > Layers > My Vessel > Laylines.

Setup > Sailing Angle

Allows you to select how the device calculates laylines. The Actual option calculates the laylines using the measured wind angle from the wind sensor. The Manual option calculates the laylines using manually entered windward and leeward angles.

Setup > Windward Angle

Allows you to set a layline based on the windward sailing angle.

Setup > Leeward Angle

Allows you to set a layline based on the leeward sailing angle.

Setup > Tide Correction

Corrects the laylines based on the tide.

Setup > Filter Time Constant

Filters the layline data based on the time interval entered. For a smoother layline that filters out some of the changes in the boat's heading or true wind angle, enter a higher number. For laylines that display a higher sensitivity to changes in the boat's heading or true wind angle, enter a lower number.
