G'day
Just reading about 3D bathymetric charts and a program called Commander Add-on Module - 3D module
and was wondering about its uses and compatability with my big navman 8120 or is there somthing similar?? this would have to be good for finding potenial fishing spots from your longue room.

I have had the luck to look at a Trawler 3d sounding taken from our local area...they just record all the areas they fish in...pop it on to your computer and it gives you a detailed picture of the bottom...it even gives lat/long points whilst on the laptop...so you can scroll around a certain point on the map...look at it in different angles....find a bump or ledge you like and you have the exact coordinates.....

Hope this wasnt too confusing
