Default Anything change since 2009???

Hi,
I have not yet had a chance to buy an updated chart, but I was just curious, if there are any major changes to navigation on the lake, for example, any new NO WAKE zones, hazzards, or anything like that. This weekend will be the first time since summer 09 for being on the lake. Our boat was on the ocean last year, back at the lake now.

thanks!

I think if you go to Bizer's webpage


http://www.bizer.com

and click on the link marked "corrections", there's a pretty extensive revision history for their charts with dates and whatnot. So that might help.

FWIW, I still use my C-map chip I bought in 2005 and have noticed very few material changes, I still buy a new map every couple of years though.

Good luck!

Great! Thanks. Yeah, we have a pretty new GPS on board, and I think we have a chip.

I took my father-in-law's boat from Weirs to Wolfeboro two years ago and realized halfway there that the chart was from 1996. The markers were correct though I wouldn't recommend it. I bring my own chart and gps now.
