WayPoint chose the lighthouse to be our symbol. For hundreds of years, the lighthouse beacon served as waypoints for both navigators and those lost at sea. Countless ships and lives were saved thanks to the lighthouses. They serve to warn the sailor of dangerous reefs beneath the sea or perilous rocky coasts on land, and as waypoints to guide ships into a safe harbor or back out to sea. Every lighthouse tells the mariner, "This is exactly where you are."
