    No updates to G3 Map?

    It seems the G3 map hasn’t been updated Since the initial release. Garmin Express still shows version 2019.0. Any info on this?

    I’m concerned if we (the group who chose Garmin ECHOMAP Plus 9x last year around this time) will be able to get another update before the one year free update expires.

    I was on the phone with a support guy this week.
    He mentioned that there is another update coming out soon before the year is up.
    And another one next summer.

    I hope that fixing "lake level" is part of fixes when the do come out with an update. One of the main reasons I upgraded and it no longer works. My lakes are HD and I love the detail but my lake level also fluctuates 30 plus feet from winter to summer.

    30 feet, wow that is extreme. Couldn't you just change the shading on your current map to show like everything under 30 feet in red and adjust other depth colors as needed?

    Same here. The levels shown on my lake, if they were true, water would be over the emergency spillway...lol! Funny thing is my lake is a Navionics map. The depth shows correct on the Navionics website and on the Active Captain website...however it way wrong as shown on the Active Captain app and map loaded into the unit.

    Garmin use to show the level the lake was scanned at on the g2 cards so all you had to do was look at that depth the chart was made at then look at what the actual lake level was and do the quick math. Now it doesn't show that anymore so you have to zoom in and get on a contour line and try to match up all your depths. Its def a lot more aggravating.

    yeah the Navionic's pulled maps are way off for me as well. Like the depth lines are all over the place. Some over land. They need to fix this crap.
