Waypoint arrival circle
The Waypoint arrival circle is an imaginary boundary
line placed around a waypoint which, when reached, triggers the waypoint
arrival alarm. As the alarm is triggered by the waypoint arrival circle
and not the waypoint your vessel may still be some distance from the
actual waypoint when the alarm sounds. The size of the waypoint arrival
circle can be customized, if the arrival circle is changed so that
the radius is 0.3 nm or greater from the waypoint this can result
in a cross track error alarm.
