E-charts, new or used?

Hi

Having recently acquired our boat we have also inherited new GPS systems which all run on Navionics charts. However our old system used C Map cards, this renders our old collection of cards pretty much useless. I was just wondering if there are any places out there that deal in, and or swap different makes of e-charts as they are not cheap and there must be a market for this. Any one heard of anything like this or have any ideas?

Hi

Having just purchased my first GPS plotted that does run on C map cartridges i'd be very interested in talking to you with regard to buying them off you, what areas do you have ?


Regards

These are NT + and quite small in size. We will probably sell them with a Raychart 620 once we figure out what was wrong with this Raychart plotter that we took out.

There are anumber of people on this forum who use C-Map NT format chips.
I think you will find some willing takers if you advertise them here.
Else there is a company at :

http://www.chartsales.co.uk/system/index.html

who will offer them for sale for you.

But could we have a chance first please?

We will put them up for sale here first if we dont sell them with the plotter, after we figure out what is wrong with the plotter we will know where we stand. If it is to be sold as a package with the plotter we will put it up for sale here in the correct forum.

We have now put our unwanted CMAP NT+ cards up for sale in the 'bits and pieces' section as well as the Raymarine plotter we removed when fitting our new colour plotter, if anyone is interested.
