[DG] [DG11] Auto advance waypoints in route trackmode?

[Derek - Raymarine - Moderator]

Hi Martin,
Thankyou for your enquiry.

The issue is one of liability, if the plotter automaticially initiates a turn onto a new track which then results in a collision, then the manufacturer developing the product could be held liable because they instigated the turn. If the skipper ignored the waypoint arrival alarm and the boat continued straight and then had a collision then this is still the responsibility of the skipper.

I have forwarded your feedback to our product managers for their feedback and comment.

Regards
Derek
