I have a Navionics chip for my boat fishfinder. Is there any way I can put to use on the ice?? Some sort of handheld unit maybe??

Thanks

Take a look at the Magellan 510 or 610. Both will accept the Navionics card as long as you have the MicroSD card. They do a great job of displaying the mapping.

Are the navionics chips compatible with my Explorist 500 LE? It does accept a micro SD.

They only work with the Explorist 510, 610, and 710. The "older" units are not going to have the software to run the charts.

do you know which garmin nuvi models can run the navionics charts?

Husky_Jerk: Unfortunately the Garmin doesn't read the Navionics charts. I have used the Magellan 610 on the ice and it is excellent!
