Does it have charts for the Pensacola area ?

This is difficult to answer as there is some limits to the coverage. Most coastal waters are covered, but very few lakes. Check out this link and click on the link to get a pdf of the lakes that are included. http://www.raymarine.com/view/?id=7415

I don't know but I attached my correspondence aboutthe card, I would suggest you contact them. You can "UPDATE" the card for $99.00 which may be worth while for the sonar and fresh updates depending on where you fish. Hope this helps, ps you'll need to be deligent and precise to get your answer. Frank, Raymarine does bundle a Gold specialty chart with some of the Dragonfly plotters. Specialty charts like that are different from the standard Gold marine charts in their coverage. Also, they cannot be updated online. Both the specialty gold chart and an older standard Navionics Gold chart can be used to activate the Navionics Update card, which will provide the SonarCharts feature. There is more information about the update card on our website at the following link: http://www.navionics.com/en/navionics-updates .

It comes with the basic charts but more detailed chats are available. I purchased the detailed charts for all of the Great Lakes that covers all of the St Lowrance and the East coast down to NY and up through the Hudson

According to the (very) small print on the side of the box, "Includes preloaded street maps for the US, Canada, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, and Bahamas. You can also go to www.garmin.com for additional info.

No, and the actual amount of info shown is very minimal compared to competition. Even after the latest map update, serious map errors and POI list is nearly worthless. Buy anything else, it can't be a lower quality product. Large screen is only useful feature. Just completed an 8500 mile trip around the county with this frustrating device!

I use the GPS puck with OpenCPN. It reads the output of the puck and puts in on charts. The charts are available free from NOAA. If you are just interested in reading the data, you can cat it into a file from the /dev/ttyUSB0 port or if that is busy, ttyUSB1, etc. The puck outputs at the 4800 bps ASCII format.

I dont know about coastal charts but mine has inland lake maps. The maps that are on the unit do not have any detail. I ended up getting the navionics map card.

Yes. You can go online to the Ray Marine site and bring up the maps to see the detail. I would suggest doing that so you can see the exact area that you are needing.

No U.S. costal charts are included. Only the base map is available. I believe that would be on the Navionics or Lakemaster addon chips.

It has a bunch of them. Is there a specific station that you are looking for?

It does come with a pocket chart, but it is narrower than standard pocket charts. It's specifically made to fit the schedule cards that come with it.

I don't know right off but there is a link on the site to Mohu's own map to let you know whats available in your area. LOOK at their site and there are many others

S. Roberts, yes, it comes preloaded with basic charts. I live in SE Alaska and really needed more detailed charts and so ordered the appropriate chip with it. The resolution on the chip is fantastic and the resolution on the preloaded charts is pretty good.

It includes the pocket chart . cards like it shows and some blank ones. It's useful, but wait until you know that the schedule will not change before you set it up. Enjoy!

Hello David, I too am primarily interested in a Puget Sound nautical map. One of the user reviews said we need the optional Garmin BlueChart g2 Vision maps and it turns out the Puget Sound requires purchasing the VUS037R Vancouver San Diego Map (micro sd/sd card). That's a far larger area than I need, but its a "take it or leave it" proposition. If you search Amazon for it, you will see it is currently "on sale" for $303! I only wanted this Garmin as a backup for my Humminbird FishFinder 595c-gps which uses a Navionic "Gold Chart" retailing exactly 1/2 that price for a similar nautical chart of the entire U.S. Pacific Coastline. Since Puget Sound coverage is so costly, I guess I will have to skip the Garmin Nuvi 500 which I thought would make a nifty backup for my Himminbird GPS. (I dunno. Maybe I'll get it anyway and just use the solid "blue-colored" part of the standard land map as the backup. Since there are no reefs in Puget Sound, I suppose that would get me back to the ramp if the fog rolled in, but it won't show where the shiping lanes are etc.... I hope this helps. Gary W.

Try the Midland WR-300 it has AM and FM radio and gets weather alerts like the WR-120 but the down side is you to get the S.A.M.E code for your county and enter it. You can find the country codes at WWW. Noaa.gov
