    gps, what systems use cmap nt?

    gday all , i was wondering if any gps systems support cmapnt max and navionics as well, especially the sd cards.I need to get a gps with sd card that is compatable with cmap, so i can take marks from my furuno vx2 and load them into a seperate gps system. Any help will be great. All i seem to find is that alot of smaller gps use navionics which(apparently) can not be used in a system that support cmap. Can anybody help in this case?

    As far as I'm aware not in the one unit. As you might be aware Furuno basically make the same/similar models to support either Cmap or Navionics but is ordered as either a Cmap or Navionics based unit.

    What model VX2 do you have and what separate gps system do you intend to put them into? It might be possible to download/export the Furuno and once this was done then you could almost put them into any system you like, give or take a few that are behind the technology times!

    gday kerry, the two furunos are mod - rdp-148 and mod- rdp-149 if this helps ,one is a 7 inch display , and the other is a 10 inch display, both the vx2 series , the 7 inch being the master ,the 10 inch the slave.(nav-net systems)
    These systems are in a bigger boat, but i also have a tinney with a furuno 620 unit in it, and no gps but a garmin 72 handheld unit that i am retiring and looking to replace with something that will talk to everything else -ie the 620 fishfinder in the tinney, and the furunos in the other boat, through the sd card.
    I am by no means a tech head, and any advise to get them to "network" harmoniously would be great.

    How about sticking with one of the smaller Furuno's (1650/1850 etc) in the tinnie which one would expect compatibility as they use the same memory and come in either C-map or Navionics.

    Anything will connect to the 620 but if one memory card fits all then it would make it just a unplug/plug -in card and go?
