    The MEGA frequency creates the sharpest images for SI and DI.

    Current software is available on the Humminbird website in the Support/Software Updates section.

    Yes, software updates are cumulative, you can't miss any by installing the current one.
    You are about 2 1/2 years behind.

    You loose nothing but any settings you have changed from the factory set ones.

    Just in case, export your waypoint library to a blank formatted memory card of 32 GB or less.

    Even if you don't do the Restore Defaults, the software will do it anyway, it's built-in for those that don't read and follow the instructions.
