tion at the time these keys are pressed is used as the man overboard

Saving a new "Man Overboard" waypoint will overwrite and
erase the previous "Man Overboard" waypoint.

Navigate Back to MOB Waypoint

Find your way back to the accident position with the Navigation Page

or Map Page. When MOB is activated, the Navigation Page automati-

cally shows the compass rose with its bearing arrow pointing toward

the man overboard position, and the destination name says "Going To

Man Overboard." The Map Page displays a Man Overboard waypoint,

represented by a human figure, and the steering arrow points where to

steer to reach that position.

Navigating to Man Overboard: Man Overboard Activated message, left,

Navigation Page, center, Map Page, right. The MOB is to the starboard

of the vessel; the GPS shows which direction to steer for the rescue.

The man overboard position is also stored in the waypoint list for fu-

ture reference. It can be edited the same as any other waypoint. This

prevents the inadvertent loss of the current Man Overboard position.
