The reason I want to do this is to combine my bluechart G2 + topo + city/streets for my local area into a single gmapsupp.img file. I'm thinking about trying to merge individual chart img files instead of all and see if Mapsource can handle that.

I've tried Homeport - There are two problems with Homeport: 1) Homeport won't read the img file from the PC or the Garmin GPS. The img has to be on a USB storage device (microDS or copy to flash USB stick). 2) Homeport won't print the chart page/image. The chart is "locked" for printing. When planning a route, I prefer to have a printed copy as a "guide book" for an overall view of trip and paper backup. I do have PC charting software and the free NOAA charts, but now I'm into planning on the PC, transferring waypoints and routes to/from the Garmin GPS. A minor issue, the waypoint descriptions and icons get messed up.

I was hoping that I could use my licensed Garmin charts and do this with one piece of software to simplify route planning and waypoint management. I'll keep trying different things and post back what I find. Thanks again,
sorry for my bad english!
do you have one soluce?
because with no mapsource for g2 (free on img sd) i want mixt trak marine + g2
