    Zero Line or another Navionics Card ???

    I have a Helix 10 on the bow, on the console I have a 1197c with a Navionics card in it.

    Rather then keep swapping the card between units, ( just know it will drop in the water some how).
    I would like to get another card.

    Watching some of the videos, the Zero Line card looks like it has better definition.

    So am I better off getting the Zero Line and mapping my local lakes ?
    Or is it better to stay with something I am familiar with and get another Navionics card ???

    Thanks

    The Zero Line card has no contours on it. It's "definition" will be only be as good as the effort you make to collect the data to create the contour lines.

    Have you looked at the current maps on the Navionics website's Web App?

    I would get the Navionics Updates card, which is essentially a Navionics + card for half off after you activate it using your old card. You can still use your old card, but you get the best new maps Navionics has.

    you can also easily make new contours with Navionics too through their SonarCharts program.
