The Shoreline Distance setting indicates how close to the shore you want the
auto-guidance line to be placed. The auto-guidance line may move if you
change this setting while navigating.
The available values for the Shoreline Distance setting (, ,
, , or ) are relative, not absolute. To ensure that the auto-
guidance line is placed an appropriate distance from shore, you can assess the
placement of the auto-guidance line using one or more familiar destinations
that require navigation through a narrow waterway.
