North-up or Track-up modes.

Stores up to 3000 waypoints or marks, 50 routes and 5000 track points.

Built-in worldwide background chart.

Tide Info feature uses local C-Card information to calculate tide graph for local ports.

Find function uses local C-Card to locate nearest boatyard, bank, even the closest shower.

Pointing device controls on-screen cursor to plot, scroll, pan, and zoom from vast sea areas to harbor charts.

Softkeys and comprehensive on-screen menu for easy access to all system features.
