    Abstract: An apparatus for providing marine information is provided including a user interface, a processor, and a memory including computer program code. The memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the processor, cause the apparatus to generate a sonar image based on sonar return data received from an underwater environment, determine a location associated with the sonar return data based on location data received from one or more position sensors, and render a nautical chart on a display. The computer program code is further configured to cause the apparatus to receive a user input on the user interface directed to a portion of the display in which the nautical chart is presented, and modify presentation of the nautical chart such that the portion of the display presents the sonar image in response to receiving the user input.

    Abstract: A wind sensor, such as a sonic anemometer, may be utilized to cause a trolling motor to activate to propel a watercraft toward a virtual anchor location, route, or destination, in response to detection of an occurrence or wind. In some instances, the trolling motor may be steered to a direction opposite a wind direction when activated. The trolling motor may also be oriented to a corrective direction based on a comparison of a current location to the virtual anchor location, route, or destination. Propelling the watercraft may also include determining a propulsion correction based on wind speed, wind direction, and/or watercraft characteristics. Depending on the configuration, the wind sensor may be integrated into the housing of the trolling motor.

    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods are provided herein for performing marine auto-ranging. Marine auto-ranging may include the functionality to determine current conditions associated with a watercraft (e.g., remaining fuel, location, speed, wind, current, etc.) and determine a range for the watercraft and, in turn, possible destinations for the watercraft that are within range on a map. A marine electronic device may be configured to display a map and overlay the map with an indication of how far a watercraft could travel based on such current conditions, such as a highlighted or shaded geographical area around a current location of the watercraft on the map.
