    Mr Purples maps ARE the open source ones. So you should have doc marked with a pink line on boundary.

    Mine don't have DOC boundaries (Mr Purple) but the file is easy to find. If you want I can put in a Dropbox share.

    @mikee DOC Boundaries
    Copy it into the "GARMIN" folder in your GPS or SD card. You can make a new folder on your card if you need.
    Im a GPS lemon and figured it out. Isn't this stuff your bread n butter?

    Hey Thanks for that and in answer to your other question..............................Um yes but Garmin is a dirty word where I have been working for last 16 years, we generally don't do anything other than marine based stuff and mostly commercial so no Garmin, Lowrance or such.
    Actually I like the Garmin stuff better (hand held stuff )

    This thread needs a sticky, i've been looking for doc maps like this for years, luckily i've never had any trouble with being caught in the wrong place but I could picture the argument with my A4 printout of the grainy DOC jpg maps as my only defense
