    Here is the GARMIN Format Of The 500 Course

    Hey Guys

    I converted the Score GPS File for the 500 from Lowrance to Garmin format.

    If anyone wants it, here it is:

    Thanks for the conversion. Thinking about pre-running the 500 for fun, but only have a Garmin gps.

    Yes, Mapsource should be open.

    1-Save the file to your puter
    2-Open Mapsource
    3-Open Saved files
    4-Download to GPS
    5-Get Some

    Dont forget step 5

    While on the subject of Garmins, anybody have a download for the streets and areas in Ensenada? Or know where one is. The maps for ours only has the USA and Baja is very very limited.
