Brother in-law bought a custom 82ft yacht in Taiwan. He lives in Las Vegas. Had it delivered and registered in Washington state. This saved mucho $ in sales tax. Had to keep it there for 1 yr, then moved to Newport Ca. Talking to him this was common place behavior with mega boats. My 14ft...

ok, back to my question. anyone know what those patterns are on my relief shading are?

anybody know what those patterns are on relief shading they start to show up at around 600ft

off vero beach fla. have not had a chance to offshore due to weather. hopefully can try soon.

Fished with the relief shading yesterday pretty amazing view of the bottom. We were in 15-25ft, seems as though detail diminishes as you get deeper. How deep does it remain effective?

yea i figured that. put the charts on the i pad and phone. the detail on the i pad is the best

got relief on the plotter. actually seems clearer on my phone. can i still use and ipad for active captain and charts?

So bit the bullet and bought new plotter with navionics south and vision. I have things activated and downloaded relief shading to my phone but cannot see it on the plotter. Currently is seems to be syncing and transferring to the plotter. I think that's the direction info is going. Second...

I gave up WM was nice enough to take it back and offered another card to replace. I declined and took the money. My concern is the card slot does not hold a card 99% of time. I have also lost my previous subscription of Navionics charts and am now using the blue charts which come with the...

of course in my haste i omitted the n. i cannot get a card to click into the sd slot on the unit. i agree 3 years is not old and should still work. i was able to get a card to stay by jamming with the screwdriver and pushing over to catch on the edge of the slot. it does not read the 149$...

First thanks for the help. Yes I purchased the vus006r. Is it the correct one of the 4 I have no idea and most likely WM will not either. That said things may be a problem on the hardware side. First my Garmin has lost the Navionics charts that I bought after I purchased the plotter. That...

I will try to clarify. Had Navionics + subscription which expired in 2023. Never renewed the subscription as charts were fine for me. The other dat went fishing with a buddy that had the Navionics+ Vision and was impressed with the relief shading for bottom fishing. So go to WM as I had a...

So I paid 149 for the card in a box. When I go to my subscriptions they want another 149 to renew. What's up with that. I thought buying the card would be the subscription.

I bought the navionics vision +, micro sd card. I got it for relief shading when bottom fishing. My last subscription expired in june 23. For the life of me I cannot get my compatible chartplotter to give any indication i am trying to upgrade. I have active captain. I assumed just plug the...

did the same as drbatts, only mistake was no spacers first time. a place for yuk and algae to accumulate. 2 spacers under fixed it. love it as a work station when fishing.

My boat is a 92 and in tank macerator and sensors did not work. I think it was 800$ for a new pump. Pulled the pump and put a small bilge pump in its place. Used a small section of pcv and adapters to original hose. Switched the in tank pump 12v supply at the cabin bulkhead panel. It is a...

Interesting project. I have the mechanical hydraulic steering and mechanical throttle on my Zukes 250's. Do have a Raymarine EV 150 AP which Iike. Curious what cost and installation will be like. I think the EV 150 will tie in if wanted to.

We replaced the copper tube in my boat after a leak. Used premade hoses which were to long and now have a coil of hose in the bilge. If I were to do it again I would use steering hose with no fittings and after pulling and getting length right put on Parker field replaceable fittings, like the...

I have Blue Seas ACR's for my 250 Suzuki's which does not have aux charge wire. Works fine.
