I use Google earth, Garmin Homeport and Garmin Mapsource.

Google Maps - the green arrow is the mark (sometimes it puts numbered landmarks on there as well)

Example
-33°10' 29.00'', 128° 57' 26.50''

I use Oziexplorer which allows you to scan your own maps in. You will either need to buyit (about $120) or find a crack but it is worth it as you can interface it with your GPS. Plus it is an Australian product, so buy it.

C-Map if you can get it is the best way, it shows all reef and contours on the planet.
