Happy to have a look. Do a 'save all' to card and send me all the files.

Cheers, Andrew

PS, always recommended to use at least 2 GPS's for redundancy.

Thanx Andrew, and you have clarified for me without the data files, and track points, GPS dsiplays are meaningless Bugger!!!!!

Let that be a lesson to all serious GPS speedsailors, who want official recognition of their performances, Wear 2 GPS's for insurance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't give up till the GPS is plugged into a Windows computer and Navilink is used to download the log data. It's possible the card writing function is broken and the log data is on the unit.

I get the log data off my GT-11 this way. I can help out, I live in Hornsby.

Heart bleeds for you Leo, I can just imagine how you feel.
Possibly worse than Kato when his 24hr distance record couldn't be counted in full for the GTC because it straddled 2 days.
And I'm sure there have been others, 2 GPS's isn't such a silly idea. (although that wouldn't have helped Kato)
