    Two different up-dates. Software updates are here:

    https://www8.garmin.com/support/software/marine.html

    Map up-dates have been difficult to get for at least the last year or so. Just one of my complaints about Garmins website management. People have been complaining that they cant download them from the website and are forced to call Garmin to have an SD card sent. You have to be careful or they sometimes send you the wrong card and your forced to leave it in the plotter as it wont up-date the internal maps.

    Where do I find the map updates on the website? Only ones I can find are for purchase. Unless we don't get free map updates. Their website is garbage.

    You get one FREE up-date to the built-in maps within the first year of ownership.

    I think that also applies to any premium maps you buy on an sd card.

    If you want to try to download a map up-date, start here and click on "Update a pre-loaded fixed mount chartplotter" Its about 1/2 way down the page.
