However, I do recall pulling out of the slip once, forgetting about that, took the boat back into the slip and trying to set those waypoints again...and it was all botched up...so set it as soon as you can.

Hi!
There is another way to work this: if you've left the dock before you remember to ask the navigator to plot a "Kiel Outbound" path, just set a navigation point back in your starting dock, and then ask the navigator to add the "Kiel Outbound" path starting from that point. Once the Kiel outbound path is laid in, just delete the navigation point in the dock (unless you fancy turning around inside the dock) and just proceed to the first point of the outbound path plotted by your navigator.
