If you`re browsing around a cache position or you are at anchor whith a sailing vessel, you may want to receive a warning when you leave a certain area around a point.

I`ve just sailed the Mediterranean and used Locus more than navionics! This is the feature i missed most. I had to make a circle of poi`s now to get an alarm if the Anchor wouldn`t hold.

Alternatively you could get an alert when you cross a line rather than when you approach a poi. That would also work.

Also, in case of an alert when you leave an area around a point, the point around which the area is drawn should be pickable, not just the current location. Because the center of your safe zone is where your Anchor lies, not the current position of your boat

If you are using Lotus when boating would be a great feature. You need to know when your anchor is not holding - anything that helps indicate this is quite helpful.
