Older Units

Older Simrad® units cannot read GPX files directly - we provide the correct files for these units on our memory cards. Many of the newer models do read GPX files, so please check your User Guide or call support to verify before purchasing our files as downloads.

You need the correct card size and formatted correctly for your unit to read data from the card. We list above the maximum card sizes units accept.

Older Simrad® Units with the large CF card cannot import our waypoints; if you have one of these units your only option is to manually enter waypoints from our PDF file lists. Please do not purchase our files, there is no way to get them on your unit.
