NavMap Uboat Compass Rose

There should be a small blue button at the top-right corner of your navmap (it will look similar to the "Return to Course" button). Click it and you'll get a bearing overlay on your boat. It's not perfect...it doesn't scale with the zoom level, so it's the same size at any zoom, but in a pinch it'll give you a direction. When in doubt though, U-Boot Course + Bearing = True Bearing (-360, if True Bearing is > 360)...that'll be more accurate for plotting purposes.
