Robertson AP11 Autopilot

2.14 U-Turn
The AP11 also provides a special U-turn feature that is
available when the AP11 is in the AUTO mode. (If boat type
set to "SAIL" in the installation set-up, a Tack function
replaces the U-turn).
U-Turn changes the current set course to be 180 degrees in
the opposite direction. The user may decide if the U-turn
should be made to Port or Starboard to bring the boat on
the new course.
