Remember, Navionics had a Fork update released a few weeks back and another one is almost ready to go live, so what you compare to today will not be the same data available in a week or so.
The updates are free with any Navionics Premium or Platinum Card purchased since OCT 1, 2010. You also get a free Lake PC application with the chart purchase (worth $30).
There are also a number of feature and function updates coming that will also be free to download. Some of these may change the functionality and appearance of the product substantially.
But, us that purchased the same chip prior to Oct. 1 are left in the dark. Doesn't seem quite right. Just saying!
I haven't been very pleased with the Navionics Platinum! Lowrance Map on it is more accurate and gives me all the creek channels to follow.
