Navionics charting questions - need help with charting?

[cashion1]

According to the Navionics web site products list, Community Edits is available on the Hotmaps Platinum and Navionics+ versions.

It is not shown as part of the Hotmaps Premium content- that only has Nautical Charts.

You cannot renew the subscription for the Premium version, you can only use it to verify a Navionics Update purchase to convert the Update to Navionics+, then you would get the Community Edits and Sonar Charts along with Nautical Charts of locations you select.

OK. Thank You for the information.
While updating the original card, two of the three available updates were checked, (available for updates). The third, (community edits), was not checked. I clicked on community edits and a balloon pop-up says, CE not available for this unit/chip (do not remember exact wording). After download was complete both available updates had green color checks with statements saying download successful.

I have yet to put boat in water and try the new updates. That will happen this week beginning Wed.
From my understanding of your answer, I take it I need to purchase a nav+ chip to see sonar charts on my screen? Otherwise I will only see nautical charts?

BTW, Am I not seeing wing dams on the Mississippi because my chip does not have sonar charts? Will sonar charts show secondary wing dams ie:(show the same content as what is shown on their web app)?
