I recently bought a Lowrance hook2 12 inch fish finder. I put a platinum + marine card in it and the lag is terrible. Is there anything I can do to improve the lag?
G'day mate. I'm assuming this is a Navionics Platinum card you are referring to? If so, I may have found the reason for the lag......
According to the Navionics website (in Australia anyway) the Platinum cards are not compatible with any of the Hook or Hook2 series of units.
Here is a link to the page i pulled that info from: https://d2wb2wm9dm62ai.cloudfront.net/wysiwyg/docs/Compatibility_Guides/Americas_CompatibilityGuide.pdf
To be honest, i'm surprised it even loaded! The platinum cards are quite data saturated. If by some chance you purchased them together, i'd say return to retailer and exchange it for the applicable Gold map card for the area you want, and you should get a bit of cash/credit refunded as well.
