You can view indicators for animated tide station and current
direction on the Navigation chart or the Fishing chart. To do so,
information for tide station and current direction must be available
in your preloaded map or BlueChart g2 Vision region. You must also
select the Animated value for the Tides/Currents setting (
page 12
).
An indicator for a tide station appears on the chart
as a vertical bar graph with an arrow. A red arrow
pointing downward indicates a falling tide, and a blue
arrow pointing upward indicates a rising tide. When
you move the cursor over the tide station indicator,
the height of the tide at the station appears above the
station indicator.
Current direction indicators appear as arrows on the chart. The
direction of each arrow indicates the direction of the current at
a specific location on the chart. The color of the current arrow
indicates the range of speed for the current at that location. When
you move the cursor over the current direction indicator, the specific
current speed at the location appears above the direction indicator.
