Dodge Mode with p70r autopilot

RE: Dodge Mode with p70r autopilot
Took the boat out on July 3 and worked the autopilot in the manner that you suggest along a course I take that has frequent waypoints. I totally agree that the method for dodging obstacles while in autopilot works fine as it is. You simply deviate the course, and when past the obstacle, hit track mode, which is helpfully displayed right on the MFD (C90w in my case) as well as the p70R. Very convenient and intuitive. I just wasn't used to the notion of having to re-enter track mode.

I do not think that any new feature is merited although the manual would perhaps benefit from explaining the above method for dodging obstacles.

Happy Independence Day.
