Let me know if this is helpful for setting up your Garmin GPS Fish finder start up.
All 2022 Sea-Doo FISHPRO Scout, Sport and Trophy now include a free download mapping with a token to suit your local area.
This is easiest to download with a micro sd card, watch step by step with this how to video on which instructions worked for my map upgrades for jetskifishing on the new Seadoo FISH PRO
The same technique will work for the Garmin 62SCV and 72SV when using the complimentary voucher code from Garmin.
*Note you will require an 8GB to 32GB Micro SD Card to complete your chart upgrades with this demonstration technique.

Fantastic video. Had tried for hours to get the maps to work initially with no luck. Followed the steps in this video and it worked first time. Thanks Andrew, much appreciated.
Hi Heath, I too had tried many times without success prior to making the vid. As you know, once you understand the correct procedure it’s all pretty easy. Enjoy your FISH PRO!
Thank you so much Andrew, well presented. I'm collecting my Trophy tomorrow and will definitely follow your steps, cheers again!
Exciting for you, enjoy your Trophy 😄
Thanks for taking the time to do this mate, will be very helpful for me in a couple of weeks! 😬
Pleased it was useful for you, enjoy your new FISHPRO👍
Thank you for doing this video Andrew, I tried everything else Garmin told me to do and nothing worked but followed your video step by step and it was a success first go.
Awesome video mate the rain looks like it’s finally stopping here in Sydney so I’ll be taking my Trophy for a dip soon as possible 🤙🏽
Hi Sam, thanks for taking time to give your successful feedback, always great hearing the video benefits viewers. Enjoy the Trophy, fun times ahead!
Thanks for the video. Very helpful and well done!
Thanx Andrew.... Mate you are an asset to Sea doo.... Was trying to get those maps downloaded using Garmin's U tube videos and the instructions manual.... Just a waste of time.... I used your step by step guide and got them installed pretty easily.... The only hick up was my gamin express was set up for my Garmin forerunner watch and it wasn't working.... Only when I went to reinstall it did it add the marine software... After that it was a breeze... Picked up my fishpro sport on Friday and been on the water and getting fishe gear sorted and maps.....very happy...Thanks again
Hi Mark, so pleased to hear the video has helped so many with their chart upgrades. I have heard from plenty who had difficulties prior to the vid. Great to hear you too have secure your own FISH PRO. Let me know if I can be of any further help or if you need any of my fishing accessories through my website👍
Hi Andrew, the download worked perfectly...all installed and ready to go. Cheers again for your help.
Great to hear, pleased I could be of help. Was your chart upgrade with the 72SV or 62CV?
Upgrade was with the 72SV
Thanks bud!! Very helpful for setting up my Garmin 62 on my pro.
Thanks Jeffrey, great to hear it was jog help 👍
Very much for making this video, it’s a difficult process that you simplified. I will give it a try.
Great tips and tricks. Will utilize these this weekend.
Cheers Luis, thanks for your appreciation 👍
This was very helpful!! Thank you for sharing.
The upgrading map process is a bit confusing for people, pleased to hear it helped you too👍
thank you very much. I'd never have got there without your help. I spent about 5 hours on this and just completely gave up on their double dutch website. Wont be buying the watch!!! but will be buying your products. cheers.
Pleased to hear you got it sorted, thanks for letting me know it worked for you. Enjoy your fishing 👍
Awesome video! Thanks for this
Another great video Andrew. I to do not have the accessory mode which I will speak to my dealer as well but as well as that the garmin site not log in or log in does not have add to cart option so when they open today I guess I will be on the phone for quite some time to sort this. Garmin and See-Doo really need to work together better to make this process easier. Keep up the good work
Where are you located? If you are in NZ there is a link in the video in the top right corner to the Aus/NZ Chart when I’m viewing it in the video. This will allow you to have an add to cart option which is missing on the standard Garmin pages 👍
@Andrew Hill Adventure Fishing thank you Andrew it worked cheers
@@kafa1505 that’s great, enjoy using it to its full potential😄
thankyou so much this was doing my head in.
Happy to be of help, enjoy your Sea-Doo
thanks mate .really helped me alot
Pleased to be of help, I hope you are enjoying the other videos on my channel 👍
Cheers for the vid, got my trophy yesterday and followed the steps and it worked seamlessly. Just one question about the unit, does it have the clear view option? At the moment mine only has the traditional sonar option. Is this because of the in-hull transducer? Thanks.
Pleased to hear you found it helpful. Yes you are correct, the FISH PRO has in hull transducer (Garmin GT15) some features will not be available
@@jetskifishingthanks for confirming
Great Video Andrew, really helped when I got my FP, I seem to have lost everything when I got a new phone. does this process also work when you get a new phone - my maps on my new phone do not have any details
Hi Mark, sorry I don’t have any info on that, I haven’t tried from my phone.
Thank you very much Andrew !
Definitely a game changer from the standard maps that don’t tell a lot.
Cheers Adrien, the extra detail with reefs and contour lines will be great for your hunting, tight lines 🎣
Awesome video thanks. Have one question? After downloading on your SD card from Garmin Express all went well and works great. Do you leave your SD card in the machine or do you take it out.
Hi Robert, pleased it helped, you leave your SD Card in the Garmin Card Reader. It’s also a good practice to save regularly save your Marks and Tracks to the SD Card in case there is ever a problem with the Garmin unit.
@@jetskifishing Thank You for info & replying back so fast. 👍
Thank you. I received my Fish Pro trophy 2024 on May 9 and will use your tutorial. Appreciate the effort.
Thanks Andrew. Seems like the G3 charts are very hard to find now - just constantly brings up the visions and cod wont work. I searched on the garmin site using the part number your video VERY helpfully identified HXPC024R and all worked from there.
Thanks for the update, that will help other users greatly! Pleased to hear when searching HXPC024R you can find the best redeemable voucher chart for NZ waters.
sir you are a legend ! I have been mucking around for days THANK YOU !!!
Hi Andrew - I got a 21 FishPro with the dual battery set up. Is it worth upgrading to the Trophy in your opinion?
The title of the video says 72SV but you said 72CV, can you tell me which one it is? I'm waiting on my Trophy to arrive and have been wondering which Garmin actually comes with the unit. BTW love your videos!
Yes you are correct, I have used both over the years and the FISH PRO does actually include the 72SV, sorry for the confusion. The difference between Garmin SV vs CV is that ClearVu is down imaging sonar designed to show a high level of detail in a narrow area under the watercraft, while SideVu is side imaging sonar designed to cover very large areas of water to either side of the watercraft.
I thought the Garmin on a Fish Pro did not include Side View because the Transducer is installed inside the hull? Now I'm really confused, are you sure it's the 72SV and maybe you were correct in stating 72CV?
Great video. Set up in no time at all.
Question. I noticed that you have the linq cargo rack on the other Seadoo along with your cooler. I have the same setup it. I cannot have my pedestal attached to my cooler like you have done. If I keep the pedestal on the cooler the linq cargo rack won’t fit. Is there something I need to do.
Cheers.
Pleased to hear it helped you.
Yes the fit for the riser doesn’t allow it to secure while on the cargo deck, I mentioned it to BRP engineering and am yet to get a response.
Hi Andrew, thanks for a great video, but i have a question, in Garmin Express, when i have to download the chart, there is also a contours download and a Worldmap download. Do i need to download these as well as the new chart. Thanks for your response.
Hi Brandon, pleased to hear you enjoyed the video.
You only need the HXPC024R Chart if you are based in Aus or New Zealand… Do however make sure that once you have added the SD card in your Garmin that you go to the settings and turn on the extra detail (this will show much more barometric/contour lines)
Hey Andrew, is there any reason why you chose Australia & NZ maps? I'm about to download and was just going to choose the NZ map. Was your choice because you may take your skis to Aussie sometime or does that option give you something the NZ only map doesn't?
Hi Brendan, for the last month the Garmin website had a major glitch for the maps, as of this week it’s finally showing maps with the option to add to cart 👍 Try the New Zealand only map and see if it zeros when using the Token code, I expect it to be fine for you to use.
@@jetskifishing thanks mate. I can add it to the cart but my code is not zeroing out there cost. I’ll try the Australia/NZ map and see if that works. Otherwise I’ll guess I’ll go back to the dealer.
@@brendanvucich2669 I’m expecting the Aus/NZ Chart will make it zero dollars, when you used the Code on the NZ Chart did it reduce the cost at all?
@@jetskifishing no it didn’t change the original price at all. Will try the Aus/NZ one now.
@@jetskifishing zeros out for the Aus/NZ one. Assume it’s because we’ll be bunched with Aus as far as Garmin/Seadoo are concerned?
I'm looking to buy the FishPro Trophy next year, my question to you is how often do you really use your "Swivel Seat" is it worth me paying the extra money just for the "Swivel Seat" I can care less about the live bait well I'm only interested in the "Swivel Seat" but for I noticed a lot of people on CZcams that have the FishPro Trophy don't use the "Swivel Seat" at all so this is why I'm asking you???
For my type of fishing I am often offshore and fishing messy seas. I use the swivel seat occasionally if fishing flat water and longer drifts, it’s not something I use on every outing.
That's a lot of work
Thanks Andrew. Do you know if sea doo offered the discount code for 2021 models?
Hi Jacob, the Token/Voucher was only included on 2022 models onwards…
@@jetskifishing thank you for the info.
Hi Andrew, I've picked up my 2022 FPS second hand and have to presume the original token has been used. Naturally it's the basic version showing on the plotter when I sync with my activecaptain account. I presume I'm shit outta luck and have to open the wallet to get the more detailed chart now, don't suppose there is a default token number floating around to open this up to me ?
Cheers!
Hi Simon,
Congrats getting into a FISH PRO
As I understand it, the Token if already used will be registered to your Garmin unit and the Micro SD card that the downloaded charts were added to and will be registered to the previous owners Garmin Express account at their own email address.
The only option to get the detailed charts free of charge would be to see if the previous owner would pass it on to you, it won’t be any use to him without the registered Garmin sounder…
Sorry I can’t be of further help finding you a cheap solution, all the best getting sorted.
I think I got it to work but when I turn my Garmin on, it starts in America and then I have to scroll across to my location, how do I save it to stay on my location? Really appreciate the video and your help.
Is your watercraft located inside/in your garage when you have experienced it’s GPS location starting in America. To get a GPS reading of where you are located, the FISH PRO needs to be outdoors.
if you choose Australia it covers Australia and NZ maps
Cheers mate. Just didn’t won’t to muck it up.👍🏽
if you lose your SD card after you download the maps, do you always have access to download them to a new SD card or do you only get one download per purchase?
It will be saved to your Active Captain on your Desk Top, I’m thinking there maybe an option to have a backup
Hi, I have a 2022 FP Sport with the standard Garmin 62CV unit. I didn't receive an upgrade voucher. Just checking that I'm eligible before I approach my dealer?
Yes 2022 units include the Token card like I held up in the video, all the best resolving your missing voucher.
Thanks
Hi Andrew, is there any reason my Trophy wouldn't have that accesory mode? Just watched your vid and went to mine but it stops atthe clock option. Cheers. Gareth
Hi Gareth, it should definitely have that feature, check with your dealer for the latest reflash update and let me know how you get on.
Mine doesn’t have it either
@@shanekelly7770 have you checked with your dealer, it would have been in the white Garmin packaging box…
Andrew unfortunately I tried to do the download before a ran across your video. Not it tells me the code is not valid, any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Hi Joe, at a long shot, phone Garmin support to discuss the Token code scenario. They maybe able to redeem it if they can see online where the process hasn’t uploaded to a card yet. It maybe sitting in a Garmin Express account against your email, they will give you the answers…
Hi Andrew. How do I download the Charts for my Garmin ECHOMAP Plus 62cv, please? I just followed your guide and formatted the map on my Garmin of the 2020 Seadoo FishPro. Please help.
Hi James, did your Garmin 62CV include the green piece of paper with the voucher code at the bottom.
@Andrew Hill Adventure Fishing hi Andrew. No, it doesn't come with any grean paper. Can I have your email or number so I can send through the picture of all the thing includes in the Garmin package? Thanks.
@James Nguyen the 2020 Fish Pro does not include the Chart Token/Voucher, so you won’t be able to redeem. You will need to purchase a Chart Card, micro sd card from your local Garmin dealer to suit your fishing region.
I have an explorer pro, but I can’t find the accessory mode. Can you please explain it again?
Do you mean “access code” there is a map download code at the bottom right hand corner of the green paper card that should have come with your purchase…
@@jetskifishing accessory mode
Hello Andrew. I like a previous comment am having trouble loading my map into the new 62CV. I followed you video until you logged into the American Garmin site and clicked on ‘shop now’. This takes me to the American west coast options. You then switch to another screen that has a Google screen with a message on it. The screen then shifts to the Australian and NZ chart option with an ADD TO CART button. I have tried to follow you but now matter how I try I don’t get an ADD TO CART button on the Australian map options. Am I missing something. Tried going direct through the Garmin Australia site with the same result. This is driving me insane. Any help please.
Yes at that stage I discussed and used an already saved short cut to the charts I required. At 9 minutes 54 secs you will see a prompt in the top right hand corner that has the same link for Aus/NZ charts that will also have the add to cart option. It’s pretty embarrassing that Garmin don’t have their website functioning the way it should :-( I mentioned this to them at least two weeks ago that it isn’t working correctly.
Hello Andrew. Thank you for replying to my chart update issue. I totally agree with you on the download process. It’s not very good. I have emailed Garmin with my complaint like yourself. I live in Western Australia and have been in Facebook contact with a number of new FishPro owners and they have given up on trying both through the PC and Active Captain methods. Now the good news. I looked very closely at your PC screen and took note of the Garmin chart name for Australia and NZ. Did a search on that and back it came With an Add To Cart button. downloaded that file using my code and it all went well. One point, though, I looked for the chart for just the WA coast, which I found, but wouldn’t accept my code. Strange! Anyway. Big thank you for your help and love watching you Vids. PS. The reel covers you have on your rods, where do you get them please?
@@derekball7094 pleased to hear you are making gradual progress, maybe the value of the WA chart exceeds the Token value. I look forward to hearing how you get on. I produce the Ultimate Reel Covers, they work really well and I sell them all around the world. Here is the link for you jetskifishing.co.nz/products/reel-cover-for-salt-water-protection
Hi guys. Just downloading the maps e we Oth the code. Watching the video I see Andrew purchased the Australia and New Zealand maps. Is this correct. Cheers
For NZ we have used the Aus/NZ Maps # HXPC024R, let us know how you get on.
I did everything but nothing changes, my map stayed the same, it didn't help
The majority of FISH PRO owners who have throughly followed the tips have achieved downloading the maps. If you still have trouble i recommend you calling your local Garmin Support helpline to help you step by step with completing the process and some checks they could do at their end for you.
Gday Andrew
I'm having all sorts of issues downloading the charts on my new scout I picked up the other day. My code doesn't seem to be getting applied but i may be trying to download the wrong chart.
Any help would be appreciated
Hi, what country are you trying to download the charts for?
Western Australia
There is a $149 option and a couple of $200 ones
I expect it will only work on the lesser value chart, have you tried that one?
@@jetskifishing yeah i have tried that and it says my code is invalid. On the green certifficate i got with the sounder ther are three codes - i have tried all three of them and none work
Are there maps that won't accept the discount code? I just recently purchased a new fishpro trophy and get a message that the code is not valid. I emailed Garmin of the issue for a resolution, fingers crossed I hear something back.
If the chart you select is more expensive that the voucher value it won’t redeem the code.
Can you format the SD card without putting the card in the Garmin? Can I just use the laptop to format the card to the respective format?
The SD Card definitely needs formatting in the Garmin. Once it formats it will create an Index that titles it so it can be recognised by Garmin Express when adding it to your laptop.
@@jetskifishing hi Andrew, I’ve just purchased the 22 Sport but having trouble with the website. It’s not bringing up the map after the purchase stage. Do I still need to format the SD card that came with the Garmin (brand new and never used). Cheers Chris
@@CandHHouse yes you definitely have to format the SD card in the Garmin unit first.
As for the maps not displaying, make sure with Garmin help that the website is offering you the right charts for your region.
@@CandHHouse even with a brand new SD card it will require formatting in the Garmin so it can create an index for your computer to read a directory when completing the next process…
I tried today and take me around 3 hours, it's not that easy like you said. It's not working for navionix vision+tm just for g3 charts.. try to be more specific.
These video tips have helped many people, the Token voucher code is only a predetermined value set by BRP. It’s obviously not going to cancel out every listed region map globally to zero, Sea-Doo would have set a value for a reasonable grade chart for free.
G'day Andrew. Just bought a Garmin SD card with maps already installed, but sounder Echo map cv 62 , not reading the card. 2022 sounder and card is a bit newer , 2022 fishpro 170. Any ideas? Cheers
It should be reading unless you paid for the highest spec card that may not be compatible with the 62CV
If you call Garmin phone support they should be able to help you through it
@@jetskifishing Cheers mate.
Would I have to do a factory reset on the sounder beforehand? As you did in your video?
@@damienhealy6590 you could try updating your 62CV to the latest software, otherwise check with Garmin support what ideas they have
@@jetskifishing will do mate...thanks... happy Jeting
Do you have a link to the SD card you bought? possibly amazon??
Any quality brand micro SD Card will suit, try Sandisk or Transcend 8GB to 32GB
@@jetskifishing Thank you for your very quick reply. I just picked up my Seadoo Explorer Pro, excited to get the Garmin set up.
@@chasebachman3842 you will enjoy the Explorer, I know a few friends already using them 👍
Hey Mate….I tried to download the free maps & they are unavailable for Au & NZ?….I contacted Garmin & they confirmed they are not free with the BRP code?
Hi, Garmin support should be able to update you on which map option is currently the dollar value that is applicable to the Token Code value. It sounds like there is now different mapping options available since the time the video was published.
Ah ok, I’ll suss out, thanks for feedback 👍
Hi Andrew. Have had or still having troubles on my 62 CV. Have managed to register it but that s about all. I have been told I have the latest version 14.10 installed. The token didn't come in the instructions. Should I go back to the dealer?
Could you make another video for my model because the 72 cv is not that similar? Also, could you slow down some of the shots as it was hard to see on screen. Overall a useful video.Thanks.
Hi Mark, follow the procedures from start to finish including the default reset. I would also recommend resetting your Garmin Express if you have attempted already using that. It won’t matter if you have a 62 or a 72 it’s only the touch screen that will make the procedure any different. CZcams also has a function to slow down the playback speed, it will be much easier than me producing another video for such a similar functioning Garmin. Hopefully you get your Token number as pictured in the video. With familiarising yourself with the steps in watching the video and calling Garmin support you will get it sorted👍
Thanks Andrew, didn't know you could slow youtube down. I will try and get the token tomorrow. Also the garmin youtube video is out of date as they have recently changed the garmin home page but I've heard they're working on that.
@@markvincent8863 it’s very handy feature the slo-mo.
All going well, the Garmin video shouldn’t be needed for working through to complete the Token process.
Does the auto guidance work on these units?
I believe it’s compatible with the upgraded mapping Auto Guidance Technology… not a feature that I have tried using though.
Hi Andrew. My Trophy doesn’t have an accessory mode. Any ideas?
Hi, it should definitely have accessory mode. Some Trophys did not have the latest software update and needed a reflash to have that feature on the display. If you contact your local dealer they should be able to update it for you while you wait.
@@jetskifishing thanks sir. By the way, excellent video recently released by Sea Doo. Congrats on your success.
@@desertlakefishing7394 hope you get it sorted, pleased to hear you enjoyed the Inspired by video, Im very grateful they shared the story👍
Hi Andrew can you download more then one app with your new code Florida
Hi, the voucher will only let you download one map option to the same value as the voucher.
Tried a couple different maps and it says the items in my cart are not eligible for the discount. I guess I’ll have to contact Garmin.
You will need to select a middle of the lined priced chart for your region, the redemption code will not cancel out the value of the premium priced chart.
So I tried several different regions and my code is still not working. Do you have any idea which regions it actually works with?
@@austinkuhlka1611 what country are you located?
United States
@@austinkuhlka1611 hi I’m not familiar with the regional charts for your area sorry, please call Garmin support to check with them which Chart will work for your state.
Hello Andrew when I put my code it does not go to zero balance they still are charging me I did it 3 times
Hi, I don’t know which map you are using the code against for your region, it’s best you call your local Garmin helpline to see if the voucher code is active and the map you are selecting is compatible.
@@jetskifishing thank you I thought so, I just thought maybe you had a truck for that as well but thank you so. Much and I love your videos there awesome I feel more comfortable in my jet ski from watching your videos keep up the good work .ty

@@kennetholavarria8044 thanks for watching, always great to hear the videos are enjoyed👍
How to get financing ?
Check with your local BRP Sea-Doo dealer 👍
Have you ever financed a car? It's the same way.
3hrs later.....still shows me in Miami 🙄
Oh that would be frustrating! As long as you aren’t missing anyone steps it should work, worst case scenario ring Garmin support to have your Garmin Express reset and talk through trouble shooting with them
