There is another waypoint program out there, I've
been using.

A good waypoint program is nice to have and good
for backing up waypoints you don't use much.
For example, you can download only the ones you
need for a given trip, and get rid of ones you
won't be using. Makes navigation simpler.
tapr is a fabulous group, with lots of cool stuff.
They are Hams based out of Tuscon who are into
digital transmission modes.
I've been assembling parts to build an APRS
transmitter for the boat. Lots of good info
on this site on APRS. They also sell a few
interesting products.

GPS Utility http://www.gpsu.co.uk/index.html
With a free nearly full fuctional trial and half the price?
I have used it as intended, but I really value it for storing and
copying waypoint files between different manufactures units.
It works great with a picture of a chart (saves splicing the scans)
taaken with a decent digital camera. Probably so does Ozi.
