Title: Rugged Routes GPS maps
Post by: Surf and Snow on September 19, 2017, 12:03:16 AM
Steven,

Are the Rugged Routes GPS Maps only/exclusively for use on Lowrance GPS units?

https://ruggedroutes.com/lowrance-gps-maps-downloads-c-24.html

Is there a way to get these to work on other GPS units such as Garvin or other more popular (cheaper common consumer) GPS units? Or even tablets or phones?

Thanks,
-Jay

Hi Jay, Not sure how I missed this question,
My Maps are only for Lowrance GPS Units. However There is a new line of GPS units that are  pretty reasonable priced that are coming out.
The most recent one was the trophy 5m Baja which is now discontinued. It was going for $400 with an external antenna and Topo map of the Lower 48 states.

The new version will be an offshoot of the new Hook2 Fishings units. In fact you can use a Hook2 Unit off road. the starting price on those is going to be $299.00
