Boat mileage
« on: May 01, 2021, 06:58:58 PM »
Second voyage on the new boat during break in period. We made a long trip today and I have the Track on the Garmin. Anyone know how to get the mileage off that Track? Want to start getting a boat range figured out. Thanks

Whats your setup?
I have a data cable run from my main to my N2K network, gives real time readout from the main engines computer.
Hours, miles, fuel consumption, etc etc.

Go into your waypoints and tracks section of the GPS, the current track should be listed with the distance. At least that's how it works with mine. :twocents:
