any quirks like showing up on shore when you are in the lake? If you are dead in center of a channel between green/red buoy does the GPS with the map say that is where you are?? I assume that you are talking Navionics Premion Hotmap 2008?? The navionics site is confusing. They have marine charts and lake maps. I don't know the difference. The Premium product appears to work in many GPS like a Lowrance 520, Eagle combo units and even the old Lowrance LMS480 combo unit. The platnum maps appear to work only in the newest of GPS units.
