Rich, thank you for the response. I did look into Bizer. I would need to get a Data Card for my particular GPS which would cost $144 from Bizer. That is a lot more than I want to spend. The chart plotter has a pretty good base map but does not have the buoys marked on it. I just want to enter the light buoys on the map as waypoints and I think I will be all set. The cost of doing that (zero) versus the $144 for a data card makes me think the manual entry would be worth it. It is time consuming but this time of year I have plenty of time. Yes, I would love to have the Bizer Chart in my GPS but for what I would use it for is just not worth the expense.
I just need a list of the light buoys and their coordinates and a couple of hours in time and I'll be ready for spring.
