Title: Transferring and unlocking Map
Post by: Axman on November 28, 2016, 10:19:21 AM
Hi Guys,

My 78SC unfortunately met an untimely end after 6 month on a PWC. I have a new, dash mounted unit now that has the LakeVu maps pre installed. I was hoping to save my Blue Charts (factory installed on the 78) and copy them off the device, unlock them and use them on my new unit. Is there any way to do that?

If they are locked to the old GPS, I doubt that this is possible. You will have to contact Garmin to find out for sure. We can't discuss ways of circumventing Garmin's copy protection here. :)
