Humminbird Contour XD?

[HookItBait]

Can some one tell me if KY lake and Barclay are on an 898 and how good they are. I dont wanna spend the money on a Navionics card when Lakemaster will be coming with one shortly, only going down next week for a couple days. But just in case which Navionics card would you recommend if I did decide to get one. I love my Lakemaster card (Great Plains) and gotta spend money upgrading those when the Ipilot link comes on line. Just hoping to save a few bucks.

What say you experts?

Thanks

Here is the latest list of ContourXD lakes (2010) I can find. Maybe Humminbird Greg has an updated list.

The factory installed map views of KY and Barkley lakes are just basic shoreline...

I don't think the river channel is even marked...

That's the same list I have Brian. There have been no changes to the ContourXD maps that I know of.

There's a bargain on Premium East card in the classifieds...

This card should have KY and Barkley lakes...

I would ask what year model it is... just to know if it is new enough to have the HD 1ft contours on these 2 lakes..

According to the lake lists I have for the Navionics Premium cards: Kentucky Lake (KY.) and Lake Barkley (KY.) first appeared in the High Definition format on the 2007 Premium HotMaps East mapping cards. I don’t know if the original data has been changed since then. Contact Navionics to confirm all this though.
