a) Select "Setup" (looks like a gear button in upper right hand corner) and set "Pos.Icon Loc." to "None" so the chart will not attempt to scroll back to your position.

2) Select "Routes". Note: "Routes" in on the "Waypoints" tab on iPhone/iPod, otherwise iPad has it's own tab.

3) Select "+" to create a new route or select an existing route.

4) Return to "Chart".


5) New Waypoint:
a) Tap Chart at location of desired waypoint to display a menu.
b) Select "Waypoint" to create a new waypoint.
c) Tap waypoint name on chart.

OR

6) Existing Waypoint:
a) Tap waypoint name on chart.


7) Tap button with waypoint name to display a menu.

8) Select "Add to Route" to add the selected waypoint to the route.

Repeat steps 5..8 for each waypoint in the route.
