Chapter 8 - Understanding Waypoint/Route Navigation

On the 3D steer screen

The 3D STEER screen is similar to the STEERING screen, but displays a three-dimensional view of your vessel with the current waypoint, the course line to the waypoint, and the locations of any other nearby waypoints between your vessel and the destination waypoint. This screen provides a comprehensive view of your progress towards your destination waypoint, graphically showing your position in relation to the course line and nearby waypoints so that you can steer with the utmost precision.

Navigating along routes

To follow a previously stored route, press the WAYPTS/

ROUTES key, then press the ROUTES menu key to display the

ROUTES screen. Press the CURSOR PAD to select the route you want to follow, then press the GO menu key. The 958 displays the CHART screen with the nearest waypoint in the route selected, but you haven’t actually begun to follow the route yet.
