GPS Waypoint help please

[Bushwacker]

I have had a Garmin eMap for 5 years now and have 300-400 waypoints saved in it. Is there anyway to transfer them to MapCreate 6, LMS 332C, or H2OC? The Garmin has a serial port connection to my computer, but I don't know how to tranfer them for Garmin to Lowrance. Is there anyway to just enter coordinates into MapCreate or the Lowrance GPS's? Any help or directions at all would be greatly apprieciated. Thanks.

You can enter them manually or you could try this it's free. EASY GPS

Can you give me the steps for entering them in manually on a Lowrance? All I can figure out is to get the cursor right on the exact spot.

If your Garmin has a serial connection to your PC did it come with any software, like Garmin's MapSource that you could transfer waypoints into??

Talk to Lowrance, they might have some help for you. They have some free software on their site that MIGHT work with Garmin.

The Easy GPS software is a good idea too. Good luck.

I hope you figure it out. I lost my gps this fall duck hunting. I dumped it out of my boat at the access on big rice in Remer along with the rainwater. I lost 5 years worth of info. Find a way.

Best feeling in the world getting my Waypoints backed up after 7 Years.

Easy GPS was a life saver, now Bushwacker can get his Waypoints backed up for starters and then work on getting the Waypoints into his Lowrance products.

Thanks Perch......you the man...

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Easy GPS was exactly that. It took about 2 minutes to download the program and have my eMap waypoints saved on my computer. Thank you very much.
