free nav map downloads for gps
I realize you wont get as much detail or true accuracy for free, but im not wanting to spend $100+ on a map card so there must be free versions out there that are much better then the generic "basic" maps that come with the gps units? anybody know where something can be found to download "basic" bathymetric data maps |

well I am totally clueless about how this stuff works so do I just download something onto a data card and plug it into the depth finder?
@ redaddiction - is the navionics app free and where can I find it? @ alphaman - is the real time navigation an app? and if so where can I find it? or is what you are talking about just data you personally recorded yourself over time on the water? |

I thought the "REEF" chip was the real deal till I got a glance at his over lay. I think we offered him everything but some tail for a copy. but he didn't bite. Yall could make a killing with the work yall have done.
