2 Using the Wheel Pilot
Automatic tack feature (AutoTack)
The autopilot has a built-in automatic tack facility (in Auto and Wind
Vane modes) that turns the boat through 100°:
• to AutoTack 100° to port, press
-1 and -10 together
• to AutoTack 100° to starboard, press
+1 and +10 together
Dodging obstacles
1. To avoid an obstacle when you boat is under autopilot control,
select a course change in the appropriate direction. For example,
press
-10 three times for a 30°dodge to port.
2. When safely clear of the obstacle, you can either:
• reverse the previous course change (for example, by pressing
+10 three times), or
• return to the previous heading (see below)
