I have that card in my Lowrance LMS330c. Reasonably good, but cannot tell you how it compares with the others. Does not have GBRMPA green zones on it. Has fair contour detail, but does lack content in places like Rainbow Beach. Have been told that Navionics is the best in terms of Chart detail.

My SD Card died a few months after getting it and they accused me of trying to copy the map - ended up replacing it for free after several weeks of "waiting for the test equipment". Apparently it is rare for the card to expire - mine just became unreadable - white screen.

The type of GPS you have will limit your choice of map brand. Lowrance are bringing out NauticPath and I am keen to check them out.

Hope that helps.

Hi Awoonga,

How old is your map? Mine was replaced with an updated one in June 2005 and does not have green zones for the Capricorn Group.
