Abstract
A method of controlling navigation for a marine vessel includes receiving a user input via a user input device identifying a path direction with respect to a vessel location of the marine vessel, defining a new navigation pathway through a marine navigation area based on the path direction indicated by the user input, wherein the new navigation pathway includes a set of geographical locations between the vessel location and a navigation target location, generating a display image representing the marine navigation area and the new navigation pathway, and displaying the display image on a user interface display.
