Reading this warning
- DNC (Digital Nautical Chart)

- Tow / towing
- A vessel towing another vessel, a barge or a structure — slow, hard to manoeuvre, and with a long line between.
- Track line joining
- Introduces a route through a series of positions — a cable route, a tow's track or a survey line.

- CANCEL THIS MSG
