NAVIONICS CARDS DEBATE

[Rivermont Jeff]

I CURRENTLY HAVE THE EAST AND SOUTH HOT MAPS PREMIUM FROM BPS FOR $149. BUT I ALSO NOTICED THEY HAVE A PLATIUM VERSION FOR $199 AND A USA LAKE MAPS ONE CARD FOR EVERY LAKE FOR $129. ANYONE EVER USE THE PLATINUM OR THE USA LAKES CARDS? ANY IDEA OF THE DIFFERERENCE OF THE THREE CARDS?THANKS

I use the Premium Card...In my opinion..the free download at the Lowrance site offer better mapping for the lakes that are available than the mapping on the Nav. card...the bad side is that not all lakes are offered for free download....$1000.00 dollar sonar/gps and still have to spend $$$ to get mapping..

It is like any other computer. You buy the computer and it has some software but when you want something specific you have to go out and buy it.
