Waypoint Savings Versions

Lowrance has new choices when you save your waypoints from your GPS. This is an option on the 2007 models and if you have updated previous models. You will notice you have a choice of saving them as Version 2 or Version 3. Version 2 is the same format as you have saved them in the past. Version 3 saves the depth when you saved the waypoint. I discussed this in a previous Tip of the Week and it is archived in Lowrance Tips. Saving waypoints is also archived in Lowrance Tips.
Version 3 can only be opened by a Lowrance GPS that allows use of Version 3 (make sure you update the software). MapCreate can not open Version 3 but can open Version 2.

I recommend you save both Version 2 and 3 for now and make sure you name them!
Another tip, when you save waypoints you also save all your icons and trails with the waypoints.
