I've got a Magellan FX324 Map color chartplotter but I have no charts for the East coast of Aust. I have a couple of local charts but they are in Qld and WA.

Has anybody out there got some of those charts sitting in a drawer that they would be willing to negotiate a price on.
Particularly looking for:
M8G135XL
M8G133XL
M8G136XL
There are 5 other XL charts in the series to cover Aust and I would be interested in them at the right price also.

Phil.

I hope you are made of money! I had one of them............. great plotter but at $ 699.00 per XL maps I sold it and got a more modern unit that came with inbuillt maps(navionix) for all Australia for $ 799.00 the unit double as a fish finder as well!
Good luck with the cheap maps!

Paper charts are looking like the most economic charting system.

Trouble you need to know how to use parallel rules and pencils.

Hi Cisco, I have the paper charts of course.
felixdcat, the FX324 came as a prize from Cruising Helmsman but it did not include the chart SD cards.

Sort of being making good but if nothing comes out of this exercise will have to update as the FX technology is well and truly outdated [8years old].

Still there must be some SD cards out there doing nothing, so here's hoping.

Strewth. That is a bit like some one getting a free book with out pages just the covers. You have to buy them.

An empty gesture one might say.

Yeah keep asking they will be out , I was at the boat show on the weekend and instead of upgrading cards most of the electronic mobs are offering new cards at half price with extra information the old can't download , so yes the old cards are out there , I just did the same thing for my Clarion GPS unit in my 4WD.
