ANCHOR MODE
Operating in Anchor Mode
Anchor mode allows the boat's bow to remain in a fixed location, and will
automatically account for wind and current changes to keep the boat in the selected
location, using the trolling motor steering and speed controls. In order for anchor
mode to operate, the Pinpoint GPS system must have achieved a fixed GPS location,
indicated by the trolling motor emitting a three‑beep tune, and the GPS status
indicator light will illuminate.
