    mate if you cant find 1 its not that difficult to place them on a chart, you know, one thats made from papper . thats how im keep track of it all, as the chart plotter's screen is just not big enough. if you do find some software for 1 would be interested
    cheers jp

    Trackmaker is fairly user friendly, the maps are fair, theres no depths or contour lines but better than looking at a screen of dots.

    Try garmins map source. You can upload and download from your gps to computer and visa versa. Its not all that expensive either.

    Garmin Mapsource is brilliant
    And upgrades are available for it.

    There is a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot

    GPSU is excellent. About $70.

    www.gpsu.co.uk

    It will take your marks, convert them to most other GPS formats, including google earth.

    For example I have in the past easily converted mark databases from Navman and Garmin into Furuno, rolled them all up, viewed them in Google Earth and Mapsource.

    Piece of cake.
