Electronics again

from what I saw of Eagle / Lowrance at the show, their base charts are the same, and you'll have to buy the upgrade chip.

Bill, you're correct about the Lowrance units. Last year my father bought one of their color chartplotters and used only the base map. By the end of the season he was complaining about the lack of detail. I had to give him the "I told you so", seeing as I kept trying to convince him to buy a chip since day 1.
