About The Event
Nearly everybody uses GPS in the car or on a smartphone but your marine GPS is a different animal. In this seminar you’ll learn how to choose a suitable GPS chartplotter if your boat doesn’t already have one. More importantly, you’ll learn how to make the best use of it -- how to create waypoints, build and execute routes, and monitor your progress along the way. And there’s more! The seminar will explain how modern GPS chartplotters integrate with other electronic systems onboard, including VHF marine radio, radar, and autopilot. Your GPS will tell you where you are and how to find your destination. Start learning how to use your GPS today!
