Someone posted a link a while back for a site you could go to that would take waypoints (coming from Lowrance) and switch them to a different format so you could transfer to a Garmin unit. Anyone know what site that was?

More details on type of units would help, but export waypoints as GPX from Lowrance if supported. Then import into Garmins.

Dowload GPS Babel and Garmin Homeport, change lowrance waypoints format to .gpx with GPS Babel, do not upload this .gpx file directly into your chartplotter as it can crash it, its been know to crash Raymarine units as well. First import those waypoints into Garmins homeport program and then export them to a SD card to upload into your garmin.
