Going to a Destination
Using the NAV key, the GPSMAP 2006/2010 provides three ways to navigate to a destination: Go To
Point, Follow Route and Follow Track (TracBack). 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 point and quickly sets a direct course
from your present position. If you have a point, route or track highlighted on a list or the map, ‘Go To
<point name>’ will appear in addition to ‘Go To Point’. The ‘Go To’ function can be accessed from any list
of points or graphically from the map display.

To activate a ‘Go To’ from a point list:
1. Press the NAV key.
2. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight ‘Go To Point’ and press ENTER/MARK.
3. From the ‘Find’ menu, highlight ‘Waypoints’ and press ENTER/MARK. (You may also choose to go to other
points, such as Cities, Tide Stations, etc. from this list.)
4. To select a waypoint from the waypoint lists, use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight either the ‘User’ or
‘Nearest From Current Location’ tab, select a waypoint and press ENTER/MARK. Use the zoom IN and
OUT buttons and the ARROW KEYPAD to select a waypoint, then press ENTER/MARK.

Selecting a ‘Go To’ Graphically
A graphical ‘Go To’ may be used to select one of three items from the map display: an existing
waypoint, an on-screen map item (roads, rivers, cities, navaids, etc.), or a new map point (non-map item).
If you are selecting a map item as the ‘Go To’ destination, the GPSMAP 2006/2010 will automatically
use the name of the map item, but the point will not be stored in the waypoint list. See page 26 for
creating waypoints using map items. If you are selecting a new map point (non-map item) as the ‘Go
To’ destination, the GPSMAP 2006/2010 will automatically create or move a waypoint named ‘MAP’ at
the cursor position.
