Navigating to a Destination
Using the NAV key, the GPSMAP 3206/3210 provides four ways to navigate to a
destination: Go To Point, Follow Track, TracBack, and Follow Route. When you
are actively navigating, you see a straight line on the Map Page that always runs
from your current location to the destination. The easiest method for selecting a
destination is the Go To function, which allows you to select a destination point,
and then quickly sets a direct course from your present location. If you highlight
a point on a list or the map and press NAV, Go To <point name> appears in
addition to Go To Point. The Go To function can be accessed from any list of
points or from the map display.

Selecting a Map Item Go To Destination
A Go To can be used to select one of three items from the map: an existing
waypoint, an on-screen map item such as a river, city, navaid, or a new map
point. If you select a map item as the Go To destination, the GPSMAP 3206/3210
automatically uses the name of the map item, but the point is not stored in the
waypoint list. See page 15 for information on creating waypoints using map
items. If you select a new map point (non-map item) as the Go To destination, the
GPSMAP 3206/3210 automatically creates a waypoint named MAP at the pointer
location.
