rubble Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Have the Garmin 73sv which is preloaded with LakeVue maps. It appears that the preloaded maps cover the 10k and the majority of the FL costal waters. Does anyone have experience with the LakeVue maps in the 10k or do I have to get the Blue Charts card?

fsusteve Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Blue charts gives a lot more detail for coastal waters, I use it here in Naples and the keys a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I would do is print out Google Maps for the areas you think you might want to fish and keep them with you... dc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fsusteve Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Check the year of the card data, get as current as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read some feedback on one of the cards that were for sale and the negative feed was that it didn't work. Apparently the software in the GPS needed updated to work. I'm pretty sure my echoMap 73sv is updated but it may not be. I purchased it in April 2016. Can the cards be updated to newer map info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fsusteve Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 don't think so, I bought one off amazon about three years ago, it flaked a few months back and just got another one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
