The Map Page should now display the rst three waypoints chained together in a simple route, with

lets enter a speed for our vessel, which we can do from the Main Menu Page.
To enter a boat speed:

press ENTER/MARK.

a speed of 60 knots.

Once a speed has been entered, youll notice that the map will automatically begin to move slowly,
keeping your boat centered on the display. The direction of movement, also called track, will be
