I just organized 5000 Waypoints by lake for Tony Sheppard (2014 Crappie Masters champion) ...

Even tho I edited the Waypoints in HBPC ... I still found the shortest amount of characters possible and still be able to discern that waypoint by recognition ...

Realizing that HB units have a maximum waypoint capacity in the internal memory ...I left the last 4 characters of the waypoint name string for the sequential numbering of 0001-3000 (most HB units are max at 2750 or 3000 but still 4 characters) ...

Then at the front of the waypoint string naming would be a Capital letter for the lake ...followed by n (North) or s (South) for some larger lakes ...

For example Tony wanted Kentucky Lake separated into North and South ... :

So on 1 SD Card ... Waypoints were named as Kn0001, Kn0002, etc (meaning Ky Lake North 0001, Ky Lake North 0002, etc)

On a separate SD Card ... Waypoints were named as Ks0001, Ks0002, etc (meaning Ky Lake South 0001, Ky Lake South 0002, etc)
-----

On smaller lakes, Tony didn't want separate SD Cards for sections ...so just the Capital letter and the number sequence was used for waypoint naming ...
