All the way or close to it. I continue to increase the zoom to just keep the waypoint on the screen until I arrive. Large objects don't need maximum zoom to find on the SONAR. Small ones do. I also move in very slowly to keep the slow refresh rate from causing problems. Keep the side scan running at a narrow range as well. If you miss your target a little left or right, throw a marker out to the side about the distance the object is from the boat when you see it on the SONAR. It only takes a minute or two to circle the marker and find the target.
Its not perfect but it will work until a firmware update comes out that corrects the issue.
