Many Humminbird fish finders support two mapping cards simultaneously, allowing you to keep multiple map regions or mapping products installed. If both cards are from the same map family—such as VX, Navionics, or LakeMaster Legacy—and do not have overlapping coverage, the unit automatically selects the appropriate card. Otherwise, simply switch between them using the Chart or Chart Source menu to view the desired mapping card. Please see your unit below.
