All the things about buying a boat that nobody tells you

The bill of sale needs to be itemized

Boat hull Id # then price
Engine serial # then price
Trailer serial # then price

That's what he means

I should have read this first lol sorry Joe you probably knew what I just said...duh

question about navionics...if i buy that app. for my droid, it will have all of the major lake maps that i can pull up with satellite GPS overlay and the ability to mark waypoints??

Sam as far as I can tell the answer is yes. Check out their site. http://www.navionics.com/en/mobile-pc-app

sweet im currently using this free GPS app i found to mark way points but obviously there's no overlay. im checking the app. out in the android store. i might get it if it's as good as it seems to be.

Sam that should do what you want.. One thing I will say is that the GPS is not nearly as accurate as a built in GPS in a unit. The cellular one is close, but you still might be +/- 20-30 feet from actual location.

i figured as much, thanks for the heads up. i'll probably get a new finder next year anyways and will wait it out.

actually joe, weren't you and dan selling an older lowrance?

Don't get me wrong.. the app is great for the night before planning of where to hit.

Anyone know if you can get the navionics off the smart phone via micro sd and onto the chartplotter.

I have a 2 year old HDS 5 that I would unload for $400, without transducer.

Edit: Actually, I have a ducer and ducer saver that I can throw in with it...

This is from the FAQ section for android phones. It's the only mention of transferring to an SD that I noticed.

Q. Can the Navionics App be moved to the SD?
A. No, the Navionics App can not be moved to the SD of the device.

thanks i'll let you know if i'm interested. i'll probably hold off on any more upgrades this year and get a gen2 hds next year.

Yea I seen that but I also found the instructions on how to download the app to a computer then transfer it to a SD card so it can work on the graph. Im going to try to remove the app from my phone to the computer and see what happens

Well i got the navionics file onto a sd card but i wont to home till tomorrow to see if the graph reads it. Im willing to bet it wont read the ss card thou

They probably use different file types that aren't compatible so you have to get different versions
