Lake Maps Navionics

Can any of you post some pix of what a map card pic looks like i was wondering if its really worth the $150 compared to the map factory installed on my HB 788 CI ,Thanks

This is the Navionics iphone app which has the same 1 foot contour level of detail as my Navionic Premium East card..
(the overlayed icon tools are part of the iphone app..they would not be on the map card for a HB unit)..

This is an area of the nothern end of Kentucky Lake..

I bought an 898 and the factory map is garbage. Bought a Navionics and love it.

Yep the navionics blows the contour xd maps out off the water !!!! I'm waiting for the TN lakemaster MAPS!! They have some cool features

Here are a couple of Screen Snapshots from a 798 unit using an older Navionics Premium South HotMaps card. The 798 uses the same display as the 788ci does, so yours will look the same. This is from Lake Sidney Lanier which is one of the “HD” lakes on the Navionics map card – sorry I don’t have a HotMaps Premium East map card (NC is in their East region).

Well that pretty much settles it for me ,guess im going to get one Thanks Yall

Here are some examples of Navionics updates they are busy updating map chips and the updates are available for downloading to your.

I have a question, will the navionics gold I believe it is, that I bought for my 597ci HD di also work in my new 798ci HD di si combo? I had intended to buy the platinum for the 798, but its not available for the 700 series,

Thanks

Yes it will.

Thanks Greg, it will be more beneficial in the 798..One more question,,the 798 has two slots, the 597 had one,,does it make any difference which slot?

Xing/don

Don, They are both alike, one is a little faster. I was going to loan you one, but I see you have one already.

I recommend using the one closest to the North Pole - just joking Don! :Rofl
They are both the same, so either one will work fine.

Guys, don't pay full price for these cards. If you do a little shopping on the internet, you can find them much cheaper than MSRP!
