Waypoints - Don't buy another one of those paper GPS number charts!! Save your $15-20 and open Supermap. You will find 8100+ FREE & mapped coordinates! You can then add contours, see depths, distances, add satellite images, etc. all for FREE. Now ask yourself, "Can that ___ paper chart do that?" I'll answer for you: "NOPE!" Supermap is bad azz!
From Artificial Reefs to Live Bottom we have the numbers you are looking for!
Note: See the post about Waypoint Manager in the Fishing Grounds Forum:

Waypoints How-To:
(1) Open Supermap.
(2) Click on the Waypoints tab.
(3) You will see a popup on the right side of the map.
(4) You will have 2 main categories: Public Numbers and Your Private Numbers.
(5) Select the type(s) of structure you want to show, such as artificial reefs, wrecks, live bottom, rocks, ledges, etc.
(5) Once you have checked the boxes to the ones you want to display, click on "select and show waypoints" towards the bottom of that popup.
(6) The waypoints will be displayed on the map and they will be listed in the popup titled "Current Selection".
-Now you have a few options still-
(1) You can deselect any waypoints you don't want to show. Uncheck the box beside its name and then click update map to see the changes.
(2) You can select all or clear all checks. The clickies are at the top of the popup in blue lettering.
(3) You can click "download gps" and dowload the GPS numbers to a GPX file that you can input into your unit. _________________
