Default True "true wind" & the Raymarine ST60, or other

A waypoint is the same as a mark. It does not move with the current.
Using only the speed through the water a cross set with a couple of knot
drift in light wind can create a huge error.

Works OK for me since I use waypoints 20 to 50 miles apart instead of
marks.
