On the boat that we are about to purchase there is a Garmin 3010 at the lower station and a 3006 in the tower. I can get sonar and radar at both stations so I am assuming that the two stations are networked. But it seems that when I insert the extra wide chip in the 3010 I do not get chart information on the 3006. Is there a setting that needs to be adjusted or do I need a blue chart chip at each station?
 
Need a chip in each unit. That data does not travel over the network.

Thanks, Jonathan! Bringing the new boat north from Lanoka Harbor to Rumson on sunday (we close on satrday). Have you been chasing and striped bass around yet?
 
Not yet, still on the hard. First yard period with my boat and I'm going over it in detail, reworking hoeses, bonding wires, some plumbing, underwater lights, water heater, etc....

Hope to be floating in 3 weeks. So far the big stripers are not here yet. Last year the big bait run off NJ was in May. Hoping that it works out this way this year.

What boat are you picking up?

Nothing as awesome as "the nest"; she is an 04 Wellcraft Coastal 330 we named her "Chompers". Looking to build our experience fishing&piloting and slowly but surely work our way east. Hopefully by the end of the summer on the right day we will be canyon bound.
 
Congrats on the new ride. She should do very well for you. And we have a Garmin 3010. Very nice display.

We're still hoarding the striper population in the Chesapeake :D... trophy season opens this morning. It's been a bit chilly here so things are starting a little slow.
 
Enjoy the new boat in good health. Hope to trade some good fishing stories with you.

Thanks, Johnathan! We closed this AM; we are moving her from Lanoka Harbor to Rumson in the AM. The weather today was beautiful; the only snag that we ran into is that the Garmin 3010 and or 3006 will not read the G2 chips that we purchased. I new that they would not take the new vision chips but I thought we would be golden with the G2; oh well.
