"However, out of concern for safety and liability, Raymarine autopilot and chartplotting products require that the operator be notified of waypoint arrival and that the operator be notified of the a course to be steered prior having the autopilot turn the vessel onto the new course."

I'm not following this safety and liability statement. IANAL, but the operator of the vessel has indicated the course that they want the boat to follow - presumably because they have verified safe passage. I would think that instructing to boat to continue straight - off the desired course - would have even greater liability. What am I missing?
