Yeah. I have a GPSMap 76 and a GPSMap 76C. All my routes and waypoints are in them or in my computer in .mps files. Unless I can figure out a way to put them in the Lowrance, I'll be navigating with the 76C until I can mark waypoints in the Lowrance while I'm on the spot.
I like Garmin's GPS technology and map software much better, but I think Lowrance is ahead of them on sonar technology. I was going to buy just the fishfinder, but the combo unit was only about $100 more, so I went for it.
