Going to a Destination
Using the NAV/MOB key, the GPSMAP 168 Sounder provides four ways to navigate to a destina-
tion: Go To Waypoint, Follow Track (TracBack), MOB (Man OverBoard), and Follow Route navigation.
Once you are actively navigating, you will see a straight line that always runs from your current location
to the destination. The easiest method for selecting a destination is the ‘Go To’ function, which lets
you select a destination waypoint and quickly sets a direct course from your present position. If you
have a waypoint highlighted on a list or the map, ‘Go To <waypoint name>’ will appear in addition
to ‘Go To Waypoint’. The ‘Go To’ function can be accessed from a list of waypoints or graphically
from the map display.
