You will need quite a bit of software and steps to do it. Everything you need is in the tutorial. GPS Map series GPS is needed however. Why did you post this in the Buy/Sell forum.

Thank you, but it sounds doubtful at best!! "maps into a full vector format that should work on most Garmin units" When the say "SHOULD"!! I called Garmin before posting this. They did not know! I really don't want to convert the charts. I am buying a new GPS and charts I have, like Maptech & Rosepoint. Why buy it preloaded, pay extra, when I have them and NOAA updates them. I was just wondering if anybody has tried!! To convert 60 plus maps, it is not worth it. OH, I did not mean to post this in the "for sale", sorry. |
