Hi,
I'm thinking about getting a Garmin watch, which I would like to use mainly for sailing. Not decided yet about which one, because I have some open questions. Regarding the Instinct and Instinct Solar, I cannot figure out based on the descriptions or the manual if nautical units are supported properly. There seems to be a system setting to change the units of measurement systemwide, but the manual does not state whether this also includes distance in nm and speed in knots. Any experiences on that?
Maybe that's the wrong approach, since according to the manual there seem to be specific data fields for nautical readings. I found current/max/avg speed and distance traveled in the list. Does this mean that in order to display values in nautical units, I need to use these fields? And therefore, that distance to waypoint cannot be displayed in nautical miles, since it is not listed as a nautical data field?
I also found several threads about nautical units not being displayed properly in Garmin Connect, is this problem still existent and does it also apply to the Instinct?
TIA&BR
