I would be careful about this garmin 195 update link on Google
(http://www8.garmin.com/products/gpsmap195/download.html).
The text indicates the last Garmin 195 SW update is listed as 2002, but more
importantly if you go to the download charts from that link, you will find
they have Updates but they are apparently not for the Garmin 195 as implied.
They appear to be for the marine GSPMAP 400 series if you check the
compatible units they list.

Hello Ed,
Indeed but strange that that page still exists on the Garmin Web.
Going step by step on the page I edn up here:
<https://buy.garmin.com/shop/store/downloadsUpdates.jsp?product=010-00083-00&cID=169&pID=6412>
which tells no Software available.
Trying the the link to map updates fails as well....
For my good old 196 I still get updates.........

Yes, Werner, I found the same webpage, indeed indicating that there is NO
software available and I presume that also means the data uploads. I may be
wrong about the exact date, but when I had my old 195 upgraded at Sun & Fun,
the vendor told me the last data update was somewhere around 2006- 2008 and
that there would be no more for it (at least out of Garmin)
