    Live compas

    Is there a way to add a compass to to your screen over lay? I thought I had seen it some where but can't find it now.

    I added a manual compass to my boats but not savvy enough to add it to the screen.

    I have thought of that but with all the tech in this thing you would think it would be easy to display a basic Compas. It would handy in certain navigation insensitive.

    There is a compass available in the Instrument panel, but off the top of my head I don't know that's it's available as an overlay for other screens... Also there is Heading over Ground available as well, perhaps a few other options.

    Made it back on the water yesterday to try the Autopilot compass, not what I was thinking of but I like it. Thanks Team Colibri.

    When navigating to a WAYPOINT use the STEER panel. Then with EDIT OVERLAYS add BEARING TO WAYPOINT and DEPTH AND WATER TEMPERATURE and SAVE. Nobody knows that STEER screen is even there and what it can do.
