B-3 B.2 COURSE TO STEER (CTS) Course To Steer is a GARMIN exclusive that recommends an optimal direction to steer that will guide you to the course and proceed efficiently along your route.
B-4 As an example, suppose you activate the route illustrated above. The GPS 55 chooses the closest leg with a desired track of 45 degrees but your position happens to be two nautical miles off course. The unit will automatically compute the optimal course to steer (which is 15° in this example).
