MOB
The GPSMAP 2006/2010’s Man OverBoard function (MOB) lets you simultaneously mark and set a
course to a position for quick response to emergency situations.
To activate the MOB function:
1. Press the
MOB
key.
2. Press the
ENTER/MARK
key to confirm and begin navigating to the MOB position.
When a MOB has been activated, a ‘MOB’ waypoint with an international MOB symbol is created and
the unit will be on an active navigation to that point. Use any of the Navigation Pages to guide you back
to the MOB point. The MOB waypoint is stored in the waypoint list and may be deleted like any other
waypoint.
To stop navigation to the MOB position:
1. Press the
NAV
key, highlight ‘Stop Navigation’, and press
ENTER/MARK
.
The MOB function allows you to quickly activate a navigation
back to a location.
