I have the same feeling. It first seemed odd that loading Blue Chart has
wiped out just nav-lights, but this is probably how it works - wiping out
additional database, but not the basemap itself.
Garmin has POI restoring program, it didn't bring nav-lights back. Then it
has POI Loader program - this one didn't want to see my device. As the Trip
and Waypoints Manager sees my GPS fine, I suspect it's time to update my 98
Windows :-) ... Garmin says so too - that these programs require Win
2000....


To toggle between the Basemap and the Blue Chart: First display the map on
the screen than press MENU, select SETUP MAP select MAP now you have two
options Basemap and MapSource on/off. You have to turn MapSource off to
display the Basemape again, It was never over written. To turn BlueChart
back on all you have to do is turn on MapSource. Basemap can remain on but
it will not display.
