A multi-leg Route is a group of 1-leg Routes strung together where the destination of one 1-leg Route is the starting point for the next 1-leg Route. That means if you had three 1-leg Routes, one from "A" to "B", another from "B" to "C" and a third from "C" to "D" you could then put them together to make one multileg route. In this example you would have a 3-leg route that went from "A" to "B" to "C" to "D". These routes have an advantage over GOTO's in that: a. The starting point does not have to be your present position. b. They are always in memory and if activated they remain activated, even when you turn the MYSTIC off and then back on c. They can be saved and used over and over again. These routes have been termed "multileg" in an effort to make the understanding of them a little clearer. To create a Multileg Route, follow the same procedure as for a 1-leg route, with one exception. Instead of saving the Route after the first Destination Waypoint, add as many Destination Waypoints as you need. Then save the Route. Backtrack Route A Backtrack route creates a Route using track information stored in the MYSTIC to "retrace" your trip. A good example of using a Backtrack would be if you were out fishing with your MYSTIC turned on and computing position fixes. After 30 minutes you choose to return to where you started, following the same route you just took. All you need do is follow the instructions below and let the MYSTIC take you there. To create a Backtrack route: 1. From any Map Screen, press [MENU]. 2. At the Map Menu, select Routes, and press [ENTER]. 3. At the Routes Menu, select Backtrack and press [ENTER]. 101
