I would have to double check but I believe the Navonics program shows the distances you have traveled on the courses you have traveled. I used to keep track of my miles is how I know... I haven't use this feature for so long I cannot remember for sure where it is that I see it. I have the Premium program on my 898 Humminbird. I have it on my phone too for ice fishing.Quote:

Black Pearl --- If that is the unit you have and if you can set a plot, map a course, determine travel speed etc. You should be able to determine the distance you have covered. You may have to save or clear your data each time out. Lots of youtube videos on using your Humminbird. Those units have a lot of features, heck they all do.. To many sometimes.
Well I was just hoping to look at a guage and see how many miles I went. lol guess I better break out the owners manual now
Hey there,,, You could buy you a bunch of rope, a compass, some wood chips and tie knots in it like Captain Cook used.. lol "Knot" sure how that worked for sure. :)
I set my Humminbird 898 so the Trip log box is always visible on screen (located in setup menu). This is detailed on pages 127 & 128 of the 160 page owners manual lol. Then just go back into the setup menu & reset it when you launch or when you want to start over. It only becomes tricky if you want to display the trip log on the navigation screen as only box #1 can be selected, the others are preset. All other screens allow user selection of the 5 boxes (I think lol). Only a few button clicks to learn 😎 Good luck
