Assuming the red line is the intended course, the boat looks like it's about 0.16 nm off course. That's judging by the placement of the 0.10 nm limit line. The display, however, indicates 0.33 nm. Am I not understanding how the diagram works?

Dorian. The display is not meant to be to scale. Rather focus on the numbers
