The arrival circle (1) should be adjusted according to boat speed. The higher the speed, the wider the circle. The intention is to make the autopilot start the heading change in due time to make a smooth turn onto the next leg. The figure below may be used to select the appropriate waypoint circle when creating the route. X axis = Boat speed in knots Y axis = Arrival circle, radius in 1/100 Nm Example: With the speed of 20 knots you should use a waypoint circle with radius 0.09 Nm. Ú Note: The distance between any waypoints in a route must not be smaller than the radius of the waypoint arrival circle. Start automatic navigating 1. Start navigating a route, or start navigation to a waypoint or to the cursor position from the Chart panel or from the Steer panel. 2. Engage the autopilot in NAV mode when prompted.
