Built-in SailAssist Features
To help you gain a wind-maximizing competitive edge, your chartplotter
features a prerace guidance page. It shows your virtual starting line along

timer that can be synchronized across all your networked Garmin GPS products.

heading and course-over-ground lines, set and drift, true and apparent wind

Heading and Position Refreshed 10 Times Per Second
The fast, responsive 10 Hz GPS and GLONASS receiver refreshes your position
and heading 10 times each second to make your movement on the screen more
fluid. Now, it’s quick and easy to drop up to 5,000 accurate waypoints and
find your way back to them.
