In order to share mapping you need a Gen2 touch or newer with the latest updates; you will need two cards for your current sysstem

I have 2- gen 2 non touch that are linked together with an ethernet cable. They share mapping just fine with 1 nav chip.

Found a few fish. Enough that I can take my boater if needed and he wants to listen. Not so good Friday. A few small fish and hit some rocks. Took off half of my skeg and curled two blades on my prop. Waiting for Progressive adjuster to call me back. Thanks for the info Silvertalon

He is still not going to share mapping with a Gen 1; which map are you running Mr Silvertalon?, do you have selective shading and fish reveal as well?

Didn't know Gen 1's didn't link up with gen 2's. Thanks.

Gen 1 will link up to a Gen 2, not every HDS (Gen 1 ) will share a Navionics card

I take it that navonics doesn't have a low water offset feature Johnny?

Not that I am aware of Bill, but the newest updates allow them to do selective depth shading like the Humminbird
