Minimum safe depth

During the start up wizard you can set a minimum safe depth for your vessel. The minimum safe depth can also be added or changed at anytime from the Boat details setting menu: Homescreen > Settings > Boat details.

Minimum safe depthA suitable value for minimum safe depth can be established by identifying your vessel’s maximum draft and adding a safety margin.

• Maximum vessel draft — the distance from the waterline to the lowest point of your vessel’s hull/keel.

• Safety margin — an adequate clearance below the hull/keel to allow for draft variation and changes in water or bottom conditions.
