 (MOB)

The GPSMAP 188/188C Sounder’s Man OverBoard (MOB) 

function simultaneously marks and sets a course back to the 

marked location for quick response to emergency situations.

The MOB function allows you to quickly activate 

navigation back to a location.

1.   Press the 

MOB key.

2.   Press 

ENTER to begin navigating to the MOB location.

3.  To stop navigation to the 

MOB location, press NAV, 

highlight 

Stop Navigation, and press ENTER.

When a MOB is active, a MOB waypoint with an international 

MOB symbol is created and the unit is on an active navigation to 

that point. Use any of the Navigation Pages to guide you back to 

the MOB point. The MOB waypoint is stored in the waypoint list 

and works like any other waypoint.

To stop navigation, highlight 

Stop Navigation and press ENTER.
