How do I change locations.

I have an ETREx HcX and love it so far. I use it for kayak fishing and when I launch from a new spot I want to use the GoTO feature to return to the launch spot.  It keeps wanting to send me back to my Home which is where I initialized the GPS..  How do I begin a New Location for my return to place?  I cannot find information in the manual.

I do mark the spot as a waypoint but it tells me I am a number of miles from HOME.. 

I am new at this...

As a way to start the discussion here is my input.
I hope this is not too basic.
You might try "stop navigation" it might be trying to navigate back home.
I mark a "waypoint" and label it so as to not forget it.(even if I just right down the auto number it gives it). To return I got to my waypoints menu and find the spot I am looking to return to and select that particular waypoint then select goto.
I hope this will help, just keep playing and trying different things it will click at some point. Don't get discouraged.
