End Edge
After arriving at the opposite bank, select END EDGE (Figure 84). You are then prompted
(Figure 85) to enter Method (Vertical Bank, Sloped Bank, User Input) and Distance (i.e., dis-
tance from ending edge). If you set Method to User Input, use the User Flow field to enter an es-
timate of flow for this area starting from the ending edge. Select OK to go to the END TRAN-
SECT menu. Be sure the vessel stays as motionless as possible to collect the best edge data.
Collect at least 10 samples/profiles before going to the End Transect step.
