Disable Waypoint Advance Alarm/Acknowledgement - jeokeefe@gmail.com - 04-03-16 05:00 PM

Is there a way - or going to be a way - to disable the Waypoint Advance Alarm in the Evolution autopilot? I just purchased a new Prestige Yacht with all Raymarine equipment. My previous Yacht had a third party navigation system which allowed for this. It seems other (competitive) autopilot products support this, but not Raymarine. I don't consider having to look away from the water/front of the boat to acknowledge an alarm every couple of minutes a safety feature. Its more dangerous for me to have to keep looking away from the boats direction at 30MPH and puts myself and the boat at risk of hitting debris during this acknowledgement.
