Turn pattern steering Steers the vessel in predefined turn patterns. When you select a turn pattern, the system creates temporary waypoints on the turn. The last waypoint on the turn is the final waypoint. When the vessel reaches the final waypoint, the vessel goes into arrival mode. Refer to "Arrival mode" on page 110. Setting up a turn pattern 1. Select a turn pattern. 2. Enter the desired value(s) in the turn pattern dialog or use default settings. 3. Select the direction of the turn. Ú Note: Selecting a turn radius smaller than the GPS accuracy may result in incomplete navigation of the turn pattern. U-turn Changes the current set heading to be 180° in the opposite direction. C-turn Steers the vessel in a C-shaped pattern. Spiral turn Steers the vessel in a spiral with a decreasing or increasing radius. Negative values indicate decreasing radius while positive values indicate increasing radius. Zigzag turns Steers the vessel in a zigzag pattern. Square turn Makes the vessel automatically turn 90° after having travelled a defined leg distance. Lazy S-turn Makes the vessel yaw around the main heading.
