Question for Bizer
I was wondering if there's any sign of the new C-Map chips yet? I seem to remember that you said that they would probably be ready in February.

I don't think that the chip needs yearly updates, but Bizer had mentioned in an earlier thread that C-Map was incorporating some recent updates into chips that would be available this month. I figured that since I'd finally gotten a GPS that would take the C-Map Winni chip, I'd wait for the latest version and buy direct from Bizer. By the way, my new GPS is also a 175C; how do you like yours? Silver Duck |

A few buoys moved and there are a few new buoys, but I don't recall making any changes to rock or shallow areas. Look at the updates on Bizer's news page. Other than minor buoy adjustments, that's pretty much all the changes. C-Map is changing the way it markets lakes. C-Map will be selling all northeast lakes on one chip (a MAX C-card) rather than Winnipesaukee alone on a chip (the NT+ version). It looks like the chip format will be changing as well. In this case, the 175C accepts both the MAX version and the NT+ version, however one should go to www-c-map.com to see if your chart plotter accepts the new MAX C-card format. I'm still trying to find when the new cartridge will be available. |
