Boundaries

Boundaries allow you to avoid or remain in designated areas in 

a body of water. You can set an alarm to alert you when you 

enter or exit a boundary.
You can create boundary areas, lines, and circles using the 

map. You can also convert saved tracks and routes into 

boundary lines. You can create a boundary area using 

waypoints by creating a route from the waypoints, and 

converting the route into a boundary line.
You can select a boundary to act as the active boundary. You 

can add the active boundary data to the data fields on the chart.
