Help Needed with Garmin Echomap Chirp 42cv & QuickDraw Maps

Hi Community,

I’m hoping to get some assistance with my Garmin Echomap Chirp 42cv. Since my device doesn’t support ActiveCaptain, I can only connect via an SD card for uploading and downloading data.

Previously, I used to upload my QuickDraw maps to Garmin Connect using the SD card, and I could also download shared QuickDraw maps from other users through the website. However, it seems that Garmin Connect no longer offers marine maps, and now everything has shifted to ActiveCaptain.

On my computer, Garmin Express doesn’t show other users' QuickDraw contours also, and while the ActiveCaptain app on my iPhone detects shared QuickDraw contours, I can’t transfer them to my Echomap.

Does anyone know how I can get data from ActiveCaptain or Garmin Connect to my device?

I’m thinking of using an Android device to download the files and then transferring the QCC file to my SD card. Has anyone tried this, or is there another way of doing this?
