Garmin Blue Chart datacard
This might be a longshot but does anybody have a Garmin Bluechart datacard (#MUS006R, Chesapeake Bay) laying around they want to part with?
I have a Garmin 172C, which is a discontinued model. It has a preloaded base map that doesn't show any detail.

Thought I had one, have the box for it. The Data card was a c-map, it was from the Outerlimits. The Fountain has a Garmin, I had used it for that boat. You might go over to the Hull Truth.com and ask. Nice boat by the way.!!!!

Thanks Randy,
The card is still available online. The Speedwake store has the best price I've seen so far. The guy at West Marine said that I can get the CD and card reader and download whatever chart I want. But, I read that you then have to pay for an "unlock" code. Either way, I'm approaching 25-30% of what a new GPS would cost.
