Man Overboard (MOB) Navigation As soon as you know that you have a man overboard (MOB), you should activate MOB navigation to maximize the chances for a successful rescue. MOB navigation allows you to create an MOB waypoint to locate the point at which your man went overboard and the relation of the boat to that point. Activate MOB navigation: Press and hold the GOTO key for more than 1. 5 seconds to activate the Man Overboard (MOB) function. When MOB is activated, a MOB waypoint is created at the boat's current position, regardless of whether the chart cursor is active or not. Once MOB is activated, any current navigation will be cancelled and the current route will be discarded without user notification. MOB navigation will begin immediately, and the MOB View will show the following: · The view will switch to the Chart View, and the elapsed time since MOB was activated will be displayed. [. . . ] Currently, SA is inactive and the consumer can enjoy the greater precision GPS provides; however, the DoD reserves the right to activate SA at any time. Speed Over Ground (SOG) The measurement of the boat's progress across a given distance and the speed measurement provided by GPS. An alternate, Speed Through Water, is provided by a speed paddlewheel, and is the measurement of the flow past the boat, which may vary depending on current speed and direction. Speed Over Ground is optimal for navigation because accurate destination times can be derived from this measurement. Humminbird® products allow for input and display of both speed measurements. Time To Go (TTG) The estimated time required to reach the destination waypoint. [. . . ]
