Vessel Trails on the Navigation Chart

You can view trails for all tracked vessels on the Navigation chart, the Fishing chart, and the Mariner’s Eye 3D chart view. By default, a black dot appears for each previously reported position of a tracked vessel, and a Blue Flag symbol indicates the last reported position of the vessel. A black line indicating the path of the vessel also appears.

You must enable the DSC Trails setting in order to view trails for tracked vessels (page 82).

Note: The Mariner’s Eye 3D chart is available if you use a BlueChart g2 Vision SD card. The Fishing chart is available if you use a BlueChart g2 Vision SD card or a BlueChart g2 SD card, or if your built-in map supports Fishing charts.
