So when I turn it on I have to zoom in first then move it to get it locked onto my boat?
No. Turn the unit on, if you are in an open area without any obstructions you should get a GPS lock in seconds following the Lowrance boot screen.

If you are using your keypad to view areas on the lake where you currently are NOT sitting, you need to hit the "Exit" button, for it to resume where you are actually located.
The cursor (arrow) will always be where you are currently located (provided you have a GPS lock) regardless if it is viewable on your screen at the time, like if you move your position using the buttons.
If you notice this happening again, hit the exit button and see if that fixes it or zoom way out to see where your cursor is.
