I am looking for some information on which card to buy. I have a Garmin 530s preloaded with inland lakes, where we do the majority of our boating. I spend about a week each year at Lake Erie on Kelley's Island in the Western Basin. What I am looking for is the lake contours and depths which for this area along with all navigation markers, similar to what I get with the preloaded maps for the inland lakes. Will the Bluechart G2 US card give me what I want for the the great lakes as West Marine's Site states:
"Also features general coverage of Canadian waters in the Inside and Outside Passages, Puget Sound, and the Great Lakes"
But Garmin's Site states:
"The Great Lakes are covered in their entirety as are the Lake of the Woods."
Anyone using these cards that can comment on whether I really need to spend an extra $100-$150 dollars for the Vision card that only covers Lake Erie? or will the standard G2 card work?
Thanks
John
