I use it occasionaly to entertain our guest's.
Hand it to them and ask them to take a bearing.
I play along and its good for about ten minutes, than it goes back on the nav desk where it sits.
I cruise Lake Michigan, all navigating is done with the
Chartplotter.
My favorite thing to do is to set a go to on the plotter and have the auto pilot steer to the go to. Simple. Done.
