BLUE CHART CD
OK. Not as good as the physical charts, but good enough for my needs. Some awkward depth contour breaks where US & Canadian charts meet as well as where scales differ between adjacent charts. The breakdown of the regions around Vancouver Island is awkward for those like me who boat both sides of the Island - requires 2 unlock codes for a relatively small area of the coast.

NOT VERY GOOOD
Very poor level of detail on the maps. I have Navionics maps on my other GPS and these didn't compare. Overall because of the poor maps I regret buying a Garmin GPS.
