GNS430 vs. GX60 - missing functions

This question particularly applies to the CAP mission pilots in the group:

we have been flying GX50 and 60s in our CAP birds, but I'm playing with
a GNS430 in a private aircraft. There doesn't seem to be a correlation of
the SAR functions in Garmin's unit like Apollo's.

I'd like to know how others handle the missing functions. Do you manually
create a flight plan with waypoints at the end of each grid leg? 30 years
ago we only had to use pencil and charts, but now we have to demonstrate
integration of the GPS into our search patterns. The Apollo makes it easy
with the SAR map page; what am I missing on the Garmin?
