I sailed yesterday and before I went out I made sure all tracks/sessions were deleted after Sean had downloaded them.
When I came in I tried to save the track file. The GPS said it was 35% full. When I went to save the track it said the memory was full. I was able to get the info off the GPS.
All my sessions are usually on there but I havent seen this one before.
Im confused, anyone got any idea's??
Cheers

Don't ever try and save the tracks in the foretrex, this can have an adverse affect on the 2sec data that I suspect gets somehow compressed. There is more info on this on the GPSSS site's instructions for GPS use.

You need to delete all saved tracks then also delete the current track in use. Your memory % should read 0, you can check after a few minutes that the %age is increasing. After sailing just turn off the unit leaving the current track in memory till you can download the current track to your computer and Voila !
