I would like to get better charts for my Humminbird 996c. I am looking at the Navionics Platinum Plus, but would like opinions and maybe alternatives. <rant> BTW, the advertizing on how good the built in charts and reality are far apart. For example, Fence Lake in Port A isn't even identified. Nothing is marked between Paul's Mott and Allyn's Byte! For the $ paid, I doubt I'd buy a Humminbird again. THe base maps on a $500 Lowrance are better. Sigh! I was sucked in by the side-imaging, which is pretty dissapointing in reality too. And you get no bottom information at plane either! <rant/>
