Garmin Bluechart
Hi all
What do I need to view/edit routes and waypoints on my pc.?
I guess its Mapsource and a card reader of some sort?
Any help much appreciated.
Tony

Garmin have a new product called Homeport which will allow you to view charting off of your chart card on the PC. I have had a play with this and it seems perfect for pre route planning.

Yep, Homeport is the new planning software

About 20 quid.
