9.9 POSITION SEND

The feature is similar to Position Request, however instead of requesting a position of another vessel this function allows you to send your position to an- other vessel. In order to send your position you need to have a GPS receiver connected or to have manually input your position. See “9.11 Manually Input- ting Your GPS Location.”
