Projecting Waypoints
A waypoint may also be created by projecting the distance and

To create a new waypoint by projecting its location:

Current Location and press ENTER/MARK. Use the
ROCKER to enter the projected distance and bearing from
your current location for the new waypoint and press ENTER/
MARK.
4. Make any other desired changes to the new waypoint data,
such as the name and symbol, highlight OK, and press
