Waypoints
A waypoint is simply an electronic "address," based on the latitude and longitude of a position on the earth. A waypoint represents a location, spot, or destination that can be stored in memory, then be recalled and used later on for navigation purposes.
Create a Waypoint
You can create a waypoint at the cursor position on the plotter, or at your current position while you are navigating. You can create a way- point at any location by manually entering the position's latitude and longitude.
NOTE:
To create and save a Waypoint, these first two techniques use the Quick Save method, the fastest and easiest way to create a waypoint.
Create Waypoint at Current Position
While you are traveling, press WPTWPT. The waypoint is saved and automatically given a name with a sequential number, such as "way- point 003." The waypoint symbol and number appear on the plotter.
