Default GPS & GPS Software

I'm considering buying a garmin gpsmap 76CS
(http://www.garmin.com/products/gpsmap76cs) for a variety of
activities. I thought I remembered a sales person describing how he
know someone that was going boating and generating a
set of waypoints or tracks. When they got home they were able to
download that info from the GPS unit onto their home computer and
import the info into some GPS software that would create a map of the
route they took. I searched the newsgroups for a message describing
this but was unable to find anything.

I contacted a couple local (seattle/bellevue) shops (boaters world,
west marine and REI) trying to find out if such software exists, but
each told me that you can only download waypoints and maps to this
unit (and most other units).

So does anyone know if software like this exists...?

Thanks in advance,
roger


There are only about 101 suppliers of chart software, try a Google and
you'll be amazed! Try www.oziexplorer.com first, it's the best!
