Hi Ewags and Mainah, the preloaded map only goes 6 miles inland, so when you pass through Merry Metting Bay you loose it just when you get back into the Kennebec. After that you can follow the cans all the way. What I did the first time was follow a bigger boat which created a cookie crumb that I followed home in the dark. The fish finder on the unit works great, I have the duel transducer. The only thing I had to do to it was tighten it once. Mainah I haven't see the Coast Gaurd putting out any cans yet, when I do I'll drop you a line.I did call Garmin to see what lakes were on the inland lakes map and only Sebago was. He didn't think any of the rivers were except for the 6 miles in. I'm talking with a guy out of Canada who might have a system to load other brands of maps onto a blank garmin chip and I should know first hand in a few weeks. Good luck, Bob.
