Does Homeport work with GPSMAP 86sc?

I just bought the GPSMAP 86sc. It comes pre-loaded with Bluechart maps. I want to plan routes and sync them to the 86sc. Is this done with Explorer? Homeport? Something else? I have installed Explorer, but it does not have Bluechart maps. Homeport appears to work with Marine plotters.

I belong to a boat club which is why the 86sc was a good choice for me. All help is appreciated.

Yes, Homeport works with Bluechart maps, but -- alas -- not with recent versions of MacOS. You'll need a Windows PC to do any handheld-to-computer connections.
