How can I drop a mark at boat position ?

Is there a possibility, other than MOB, to easily drop a mark at boat (not cursor) position ?

Hit the spacebar.... IIRC you have to enable it in the .ini file. Check the manual.

There are a few ways to directly create marks.
  • at boat's position “Ctrl + O”.
  • at cursor position “Ctrl + M”.
  • at cursor position “Right-click” & press “Drop Mark”.
