Browsing for and Navigating to a Saved Waypoint

 CAUTION

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.
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: 

Auto Guidance is available with premium charts, in some 

areas.
Before you can navigate to a waypoint, you must create a 

waypoint.

the settings for minimum safe water depth and minimum safe 

obstacle height.
