6-1-1 Introduction to waypoints
Waypoints are points on the chart which you can
define. They appear on the chart as shown in
section 2-2. They can be created, changed and
deleted.
A waypoint has a position.
A waypoint has a name and can be specified
as normal or danger:
Normal
: You can navigate to a normal
waypoint and it can be included in a
route.
Danger
: A danger waypoint is a point
that you want to avoid. If the boat comes
within the arrival radius of a danger
waypoint the unit can give an alarm (see
section 9-3). You can not navigate to a
danger waypoint.
Make sure that you do not create a waypoint on
land or in dangerous water if you are going to
navigate to the waypoint.
